‘I was trained by Jurgen Klopp’ – Otto Addo reacts after calls for his sacking

Otto Addo, the head coach of Ghana, described his experience working under famous managers when asked if he thinks he’s the best candidate to lead the Black Stars.

Addo stated that his experience at Dortmund and his mentoring under reputable managers are crucial to his position as the senior national team’s coach.

“I don’t like to speak about myself, like I’m the best or whatsoever. It’s not my nature, you know. People can judge me, and surely most of the people will judge me by the results, which were not good. But I have friends, I have mentors. I don’t know if you know, but I trained under Mathias Sammer.

“I was trained by Jurgen Klopp. I trained, or I was assistant to Edin Tezic when he was the Dortmund head coach. And surely, we have chats. And for me, this is relevant. If they say this or that, they are also critical of some things, and I understand this, but this has much more value/

If I speak to your club and say this or that, If I send you maybe some scenes, then somebody from anywhere is saying, oh, blah, blah, blah, this is bad. I try to get better every day, but I can assure you that I also question some games.

“But to be honest, like I said, especially the home games, we played well, but we didn’t score, and this was a missing point,” He said.
