‘Sammy Adjei should be the Black Stars’ goalkeepers’ trainer’ – Charles Taylor

Former Ghana and Hearts of Oak winger Charles Taylor has called for Sammy Adjei to be appointed as the Black Stars’ goalkeepers’ trainer.Taylor, speaking to Angel TV, praised Adjei’s career and suggested his experience would be invaluable off the pitch.Taylor also highlighted how Ghana has often failed to retain and fully utilize its footballing talent.“With the kind of performance Sammy Adjei showed in his playing career, if Ghanaians are being honest, he should be the Black Stars’ goalkeepers’ trainer,” he said.“Sometimes the way we live in this country buries talents,” he added.Adjei, Ghana’s first-choice goalkeeper in the early 2000s, was instrumental for Hearts of Oak, helping the club secure a historic treble: the Ghana Premier League, FA Cup, and CAF Champions League.He later represented the Black Stars at the international level, earning recognition as one of the country’s standout goalkeepers of his generation.Since retiring, Adjei has had intermittent involvement in football, but Taylor believes his expertise could strengthen Ghana’s goalkeeping setup and nurture the next generation of shot-stoppers.Taylor’s recommendation comes amid discussions on enhancing the technical staff of the national team ahead of the 2026 World Cup.
