Former Accra Hearts of Oak midfielder, Adjah Tetteh has said that Ghanaian giants Kumasi Asante Kotoko and Accra Hearts of Oak should go back to their former mode of recruiting players into their teams where they signed experienced players who were yearning to die for glory.
Speaking to Jeffries Kwabena Sintim-Koree on CK TV, the 2000 African CAF Champions league winner believes the two Ghanaian giants should go back to their roots where they used to invest in the youth teams, nurtured them to be ready for glory.
“If these two teams (Hearts and Kotoko) go back to how they used to recruit players in the late 90s and the early 2000s, they will always compete in the continental tournaments”
Jones recruited players who had experience in the domestic league and fighting to play on the continental stage. They don’t need ‘try your luck’ players but rather matured ones”
“Anokye stars and Auroras are there for the development of talents for these guys and they need to start grooming talents will be matured to play on the global stage in 3-4years. Hearts recruited the likes of Ishmael Addo,Francis Jojo Bossman, Luis Agyemang among others from their youth team and blended with some of us who had experience in the premier league”, he told Charles.
The former Black Stars attacking midfielder further heaped praise on former Asante Kotoko board chairman, Mr. Herbert Mensah for raising the bar of branding and player recruitment higher in Ghana.
