“I WANT to be successful in Barbados”.
That is the personal mandate of the Barbados Football Association’s (BFA) technical director Somalia-born Ahmed Mohamed, who was speaking at his first press conference at their Wildey headquarters yesterday.
“My goal is to develop the football from the grass roots to the men’s national team. We have [a] different kind of technical development plan, but I am working on it as you guys saw in the last game against Martinique. I was happy to come a little bit earlier so I can start working with the teams already.
“Barbados has quite a young team with talent. The only thing they need is good guidance. I know how to work with youth teams as [I have coached] former youth boys’ and US Virgin Islands national team. The average age I had there was 19, and we did very well in the World Cup qualifiers,” he said. (RA)
