“The early signs are good, but they can improve if they stay focused and maintain the high standards that won them the independence cup recently.

I am confident these crop of players can at least grace the world stage if not lifting the ultimate trophy at stake.

“Fortunately for mother Ghana, if they can excel at the U-17 stage, it will also bring some positive news to the Satellites and further up to the Black Stars.

Complacency is one enemy they should pray against if they are to reach the top of their games”, Addae told sports crusader exclusively.
