I will not quit - Maxwell Konadu

Black Stars B coach, Maxwell Konadu says he will not heed to calls for him to step down from his post after failing to qualify the team for a second successive CHAN tournament.

The former Asante Kotoko trainer saw his side suffer a shock 2-1 defeat to Burkina Faso at the Baba Yara Stadium on Sunday.

The Black Stars B were eliminated 4-3 on aggregate after an impressive 2-2 first leg draw in Ouagadougou last week.

Konadu was also in-charge when the team failed to qualify for the last tournament but that will not force him to quit.

”It’s not the matter of quitting, I am not a quitter. I have been with the team and working hard to get the best out of the team,” Konadu told the media.

”We losing doesn’t mean I should leave the job, I am still the Coach and so I think I don’t have to turn my back on Ghanaians.

”I am not a quitter, we will continue to put things in place and work hard.”
