The Majority Leader in Parliament has charged the Ghana FA to revive the scouting system at the district level following the Black Stars disastrous performance in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) in Ivory Coast.
Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu cited the players not knowing themselves properly on the field, urging the domestic football governing body to start scouting for untapped talents across the country.
"We Academicals was strong, our game play was strong, colts is gone, Academicals is gone first division teams which we now call premier teams were playing reserve soccer where has it gone to," the Suame MP told Parliament.
"Now we are bringing players from all over the world who are not able to gel together for a long time. We introduce them. We are talking about Cape Verde. Do you know what happens to Cape Verde? Do they have any strong local football administration?
"All the players are playing in Portugal so they know themselves which is not what obtains here. We bring them from various places that in that regard we should give our handlers enough time to do this. They should help us discover raw talents at the districts put together good teams there,"
