Heart of Lions Head Coach, Bashir Hayford believes he is not “recognized” in Ghana after decades on the touchline.
The veteran gaffer has had a seemingly decent career having masterminded a Ghana Premier League triumph with Asante Kotoko in the 2007/08 season and then another with AshantiGold in 2014/15.
He recently helped Heart of Lions survive relegation after winning 11 out of 21 games including big triumphs over Premier League champions, and Samartex, CAF Confederation Cup semi-finalist Dreams FC.
"Other countries are making use of their experienced coaches, tapping their knowledge, experience,” Bashir told JoySports exclusively.
“What I see here [Ghana] is they will allow you to struggle and get a job from somewhere and still watching whether you can do it or not. They don't recognize your achievements, performance and experience."
"The only thing is to wait, the day you will die, they will write a very big and nice obituary.”
Bashir has coached Ghana's Women's U-17 and the Black Queens who were knockout of the group stages at the 2018 Women's Africa Cup of Nations.
He has had stint with Somalia national team and Legon Cities in the last five years.
