Inactive Stars Worry Milovan

Milovan Rajevac has admitted to being worried about the inactivity of some of Ghana's top players at club level but says the nation must help them negotiate the difficult times.

The last starting side the Serbian picked for Ghana's 2010 World Cup qualifier against Lesotho included at least three players whose club careers have taken a dip.

Captain Stephen Appiah is unattached after leaving Fernabahce while Harrison Afful's club future remains the subject of constant speculation after a failed bid to land a deal in Holland and a breakdown in talks between his local club Gomoa Feyernood and Kumasi Asante Kotoko.

Eric Addo has not started a game for PSV Eindhoiven.

Richard Kingson is effectively third choice at Wigan while the likes of Haminu Dramani remain at best substitutes at their club sides.

When KickOffGhana.com suggested that might be a problem along the line, Rajevac said, "You are right but we must support those players.

"Eric addo lost his place at PSV but coach wants to support Addo which is why he played even though Jonathan Quartey had an excellent game against Libya.

"I think we must support all those players even though as the coach I want their club careers to be sorted quickly otherwise it becomes a problem. I really hope Appiah and Afful especially can find clubs soon."
