Following a disappointing 2024 campaign that saw Ghana fail to qualify for AFCON, the President urged the players to replicate the same commitment they show at their clubs when representing the national team.
“It takes sacrifice, it takes strength. We all enjoy watching you play for your clubs, and we expect you to bring that same dedication to the national team,” Mahama said.
