Veteran Ghanaian coach J.E. Sarpong has delivered a blunt warning to any manager considering the Eleven Wonders coaching job, describing the role as a near-impossible mission given the club’s current state.
Speaking in an interview, Sarpong expressed deep concern about the situation at the newly promoted Ghana Premier League club, which has been making headlines for the wrong reasons. Former coach J.E. Sarpong himself stepped down after a turbulent period marked by allegations of unpaid salaries, poor player welfare, and internal mismanagement.
“I don’t know which coach will go to Eleven Wonders and help them survive,” he said. “If any coach dares to go there, you’re digging your own grave.”
His comments paint a worrying picture of the club’s internal struggles, which have reportedly affected player morale and performance. Eleven Wonders have endured a difficult return to the top flight, sitting bottom of the league table without a win after eleven matches.
Sarpong believes that until the club’s leadership takes responsibility and makes meaningful changes, any coach stepping into the role will face overwhelming challenges.
The comments come days after former coach Nii Odartey Lamptey also criticized the club's management, revealing disturbing issues about player welfare and unpaid wages.
With the league season progressing and relegation fears heightening, Eleven Wonders now face increasing pressure—both on and off the pitch—to fix their internal problems before it's too late.
