Sudan head coach, Kwesi Appiah has ruled out a possible return as the head of the Ghana senior national team, the Black Stars.
Appiah, who signed a three-year deal has guided the Falcons of Jediane to secure qualification for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualification tournament by finishing second in Group F.
In the course of their qualification, Sudan held Ghana to a goalless scoreline at the Accra Sports Stadium before beating the Black Stars 2-0 in Benghazi, Libya.
However, following Ghana’s failure to qualify for the tournament which is scheduled to be hosted in Morocco, Otto Addo, who is the head coach of the Black Stars has come under pressure to resign from his role.
Quizzed if he would consider a possible return for the third time, Appiah ruled out the possibility, saying he is focused on his work as the head coach of Sudan.
“If you are a professional coach, you will have to always keep in mind that you must be ready for any opportunity but as of now, I have a contract with Sudan,” he told Accra-based Asempa FM.
“For now, I am focused on what I am doing with Sudan but for now, I don’t want to say anything because I don’t want to contradict myself,” he added.
Kwesi Appiah was first appointed Black Stars coach from 2012 to 2014 and from 2017 to 2020. He is famously remembered for qualifying Ghana for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
