Former Vice President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), George Afriyie, has appealed to the Kurt Okraku led present administration to draw upon the knowledge and experience of Augustine Arhinful.




According to Afriyie, the former Black Stars forward and a former member of the FA Cup Committee's deep understanding of the game could be beneficial to Ghanaian football.



"The Ghana Football Association (GFA) must tap into the knowledge of Augustine Ahinful," he told Sporty FM. 



"I have worked closely with him and he is such a knowledgeable person. Ahinful he will criticize you if you fail to do the right things, but Kwesi Nyantakyi was ok with it but under Kurt Okraku's administration, it is different, which is not the best.



Afriyie brought to bear the role Ahinful played in the Black Stars participation in the 2015 AFCON, where the team reached the finals of the tournament but lost to Ivory Coast on penalties.



"Augustine Ahinful scouted for the Black Stars during the 2015 AFCON, and we went all the way to the finals, but we only lost on penalties against Ivory Coast.



"People like Augustine Ahinful must be given the opportunity to serve because he knows and understands football, and the GFA must look at him again," Afriyie concluded.
