Germany Fifa World Cup winner Lothar Matthaus has named former Bayern Munich defender Samuel Osei Kuffour as a good role model for Ghanaian kids in pursuing their football dreams.
Kuffour ranks among a handful of Ghanaians to have played at the highest level of European football, having won the Champions League (2000-01) and six Bundesliga titles with Bayern.
The 43-year-old, who was also once on the books of Italian side AS Roma, remains among just a few players to have represented Ghana at the World Cup at all international level.
