Invest in juvenile football to build strong national teams - Alhaji Grusah
Alhaji Abdul Karim Grusah urged increased investment in juvenile football to build strong national teams. Speaking in an interview with GNA Sports, Alhaji Grusah said calls for more locally based players to be included in the national team must be backed by improved player development structures. He asked, "Ghanaians call for local players, but can we confidently call players from the Premier League to represent Ghana at the highest level?"
Alhaji Grusah noted that the current Ghana Premier League lacks the strength to consistently produce players capable of competing internationally. He said, "The Premier League is not strong enough to produce us good players."
Alhaji Grusah appealed to Mr. Kofi Iddie Adams, the Minister for Sports and Recreation, to prioritise juvenile football nationwide. He added, "I call on the Sports Minister to help boost juvenile football so we can get good and quality players for the national team." He emphasized that rebuilding Ghana football must begin with youth development.
