Left back Gideon Mensah believes Black Stars head coach, Otto Addo, is aware of the expectations Ghanaians have for the team.
The 26-year-old said the former Dortmund talent coach if familiar with the team after playing and have coaching stints with the Black Stars before his now permanent appointment.
The AJ Auxerre man has played with Otto in his time as assistant coach to Milovan Rajevac, as head coach for one year taking the team to the 2022 World Cup and now returning as main coach.
"For me, I think he's one of the best that I've worked with in the national team in terms of the tactics and then how he wants the team to play," Mensah told the GFA.
"Obviously, he's always played in the national team before, so he knows what Ghanaians expect and then what the team also wants."
Ghana won their two 2026 World Cup qualifiers in June and sit second in Group I with nine points from four games.
