Sudan national team head coach James Kwasi Appiah
Sudan national team head coach James Kwasi Appiah has confirmed reports that he is yet to resume camp with the team due to unpaid wages.
The coach acknowledged that his payments have been delayed and revealed that he had already met with the Sudanese Ambassador in Ghana to resolve the issue.
Additionally, he stated that his delay was partly due to his decision to attend the funeral of late Asante Kotoko fan, Yaw Frimpong (Pooley).
“Actually, I delayed because of Pooley’s funeral. They were also delaying some payments, but I’ve met their ambassador, so hopefully, I’ll leave tomorrow,” he told Ghana Sports Page.
Kwasi Appiah has been in Ghana since leading Sudan to AFCON qualification in November 2024.
The former Black Stars coach was initially expected to regroup with his players earlier in preparation for their 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
Sudan, who have been in good form under the Ghanaian coach, will face Senegal and South Sudan in the upcoming World Cup qualifiers.
