Local players in the Ghana Premier League can beat CHAD – Kumasi football fans voice out
In a vox pop conducted by Kessben TV, passionate football fans across Ghana voiced their unwavering belief that the Black Stars, Ghana’s national football team, can triumph in their upcoming World Cup Qualifier against Chad if the local players in the Ghana Premier League are given the opportunity.
One fan expressed, “We have talented players in our local leagues, and they’ve proven themselves time and again. If given the chance, they can play just as well as the foreign-based players. This game against Chad is a perfect opportunity to showcase the talent we have at home.”
Others agreed, pointing out that local players have the advantage of familiarity with the playing conditions in Ghana, which can be crucial in international fixtures. “Our players know the local pitch, the climate, and the fans—they have the right energy and can give their best performance,” one supporter remarked.
In recent years, there has been a noticeable increase in the level of competition within Ghana’s domestic football leagues. Clubs across the country have been developing young, promising players, and many believe that the national team would benefit from nurturing this homegrown talent.
However, the general feeling in the vox pop is that the time has come for Ghana to take a balanced approach—incorporating both local and foreign-based players into the squad for the Black Stars. Fans are calling for a more inclusive selection process that gives local players a fair chance to prove themselves.
