I’ve always wanted to play for Ghana and serve this nation despite being born in Germany

Ghana coach Otto Addo remains committed to the Black Stars despite their failure to qualify for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), the team's first qualification miss in over 20 years.

Ghana finished last in Group F, earning only three points from six matches, trailing leaders Angola by 11 points and second-placed Sudan by five.

Addo has faced significant criticism and calls for his resignation following a 2-1 loss to Niger in Accra.

However, he emphasized his dedication to the team, stating, “Representing Ghana is always a matter of the heart,” and dismissed the idea of stepping down.

Acknowledging the heartbreak among fans, Addo expressed his sadness but reaffirmed his loyalty to Ghana, hoping to guide the team through this challenging period despite their poor results.
