We may not have a right back for the World Cup - Black Stars coach Otto Addo
Otto Addo, the Black Stars coach, voiced concern about identifying a dependable right-back before the 2026 FIFA World Cup. He said, "We have two more months to look (for a new right back). I do not think we will find (a right back before the World Cup)."
Addo's remarks followed last Friday's international friendly against Austria in Vienna, where FC Nordsjaelland midfielder Caleb Yirenkyi played right-back. Addo acknowledged the limited time to solve the problem. He insisted he remains committed to assessing available options. He said, "I think on our database, and also myself in my head, I know all the Ghanaian players who are possible (right back options) who have the strength and quality. We will look at their form and their club, but also the little training we do here." Marvin Senaya made his debut in that position during the defeat to Austria.
Ghana will take on Germany tonight in Stuttgart at 18:45 GMT, as preparations continue for the World Cup. The World Cup is set to be staged later this summer in the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
