Sudan national team head coach Kwesi Appiah has been shortlisted for the prestigious 2024 Confederation of African Football (CAF) Coach of the Year award, with the ceremony set for December 16 in Marrakesh.
The announcement, made Thursday, underscores Ghana’s representation across several categories in this year’s awards.
Appiah’s nomination recognises his transformative impact on Sudanese football, where he has led the team to significant achievements, including their highest FIFA ranking in nearly a decade.
Since taking charge, Appiah has reinvigorated Sudan’s squad, making them strong contenders in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers.
His most recent success was a notable 2-0 victory over Ghana, a result that brought Sudan closer to securing a spot in AFCON 2025.
Appiah’s influence has been widely acknowledged, with fans and experts alike praising his strategic approach and leadership in guiding Sudan to new heights.
