The Chief Executive Officer of newly promoted Ghana Premier League side Bofoakwa Tano, Alex Ababio has revealed that the club’s decision to recruit Frimpong Manso as its new gaffer is due to his experience.
Earlier this month, Bofoakwa Tano announced the appointment of Frimpong Manso as their new head coach, a decision which was taken by the club since it was impossible for coach Fuseini Abubakar who is without a CAF A License certificate to lead the team in the top-flight competition.
Fuseini Abubakar successfully guided the team to regain their spot in next season’s Ghana Premier League after a lengthy spell in the Division One League.
In an interview on Happy FM’s award winning sports show, Wamputu Sports , Bofoakwa’s CEO praised Manso’s impressive track record and vast experience both on and off the field and acknowledged that the inclusion of coach Manso brings a wealth of managerial experience to the technical team.
He further stated that despite bringing a wealth of managerial experience to the team, coach Manso is also familiar with the terrain and is not a new face to the people of Sunyani.
Alex Ababio emphasized the club’s target to retain their position in the Ghana Premier League after an absence of 16 years, the reason for coach Frimpong’s appointment. He indicated that the team will still keep the core of the team going into next season.
Coach Manso, a former Ghana international, previously managed several clubs, including Nkoranza Warriors, Asante Kotoko, and Eleven Wonders, among others.
With Manso at the helm, Bofoakwa Tano aims to make a strong impression in the upcoming season. The appointment of Manso reflects the club’s ambition to compete at the highest level and make a mark in Ghanaian football.
