Starlets ‘91 is the most talented team I’ve coached – Otto Pfister

German trainer, Otto Pfister, has enjoyed a rich career in football, managing some of the best teams on the African continent.

The 82 year old has been in charge of African heavyweights with Ghana’s Black Stars (1992), and Cameroon’s Indomitable Lions (2008) on top of that list.

Pfister was also in charge of Egyptian Giants, Zamalek, winning five trophies in his three years in charge.

But Pfister has identified the Ghana Black Starlets squad of 1991, with whom he won the 1991 FIFA U-17 World Cup, as the most talented team he’s ever coached.

”The most talented team for me was the Starlets 91 side,” he said.

“They were such a talented team. We had the likes of Sammy Kuffuor, who like Tony Yeboah became a legend in the German Bundesliga.

“We had Mohammed Gargo, Alexander Opoku and Nii Odartey Lamptey,” he added.
