“Otto Addo has indeed confirmed what some sports journalists say that our league is dead” – Disappointed Dreams FC Coach Karim Zito blasts Otto Addo for snubbing GPL players in WorldCup Qualifiers Squad
“I’m very disappointed. I’m not sure he used performance to select the players because if he selected the players based on performance then I think players in the Ghana league deserve better.
And if it comes to the Confederation Cup, Dreams FC also deserves a slot. Forget about Kurt Okraku., We are all Ghanaians, working for Ghana and playing for Ghana.
The coaches have indeed confirmed what some sports journalists have been saying that our is league dead.
So as coaches, you go round and you only selected one player from the Ghana League who is even a Goalkeeper, then I’m very disappointed” – Coach Karim Zito on Kessben FM’s KickOff Sports Show.
Asante Kotoko goalkeeper, Frederick Asare was the only local player who made it to the squad for the two games.
Speaking to the press at the premises of the Ghana Football Association (GFA) on Wednesday, Addo assured that now that he is working as a full-time Black Stars coach, he will watch the topflight closely.
According to him, he will be travelling across the various stadia to help identify talent.
“I will watch the Ghana Premier League closer and live not videos but I will be going to the various stadia,” he said.
“I will try to help as much as I can and I will watch closer because if a player is good, he is good and it doesn’t care where he is coming from or where he plays.
“If I like a player, I will take him and I will look close to find players from the local league,” he added.
Meanwhile, the Black Stars will open camp today at the University of Ghana Sports Stadium ahead of their game against Mali at the Stade du 26 Mars in Bamako on June 6 before hosting Central African Republic on June 10 at the Baba Yara Stadium.
