Ghana Coach CK Akonnor has given the names of his Ghana Best XI squad which features legendary Abedi Pele, Robert Eshun, Frimpong Manso and Leeds United cult hero Tony Yeboah.
Coach Charles Kwablah Akonnor, who was a former VfL Wolfsburg captain, named the squad from players he either played with or watch play. CK Akonnnor named former Blackpool and Birmingham City goalkeeper Richard Kingston in a post during an interview with an Accra-based FM station.
Frank Amankwah and Isaac Asare were clinching on the right-back and left-back positions.
Coach CK Akonnor also paired Asante Kotoko legend Frimpong Manso and Bayern Munich legend Samuel Osei Kuffour in central defense.
However, he handed Robert Eshun a spot in the team to operate from the left side of midfield with former Chelsea star Michael Essien and Stephen Appiah deployed in midfield by CK Akonnor whiles Abedi Pele, Tony Yeboah and Ghana’s all-time leading top scorer Asamoah Gyan completed his fearsome attacking trio.
