Former Ghana coach Kwesi Appiah has yet to join Sudan’s national team camp due to outstanding salary payments, according to AfricaSoccer.
The Falcons of Jediane are currently in Saudi Arabia, preparing for their 2026 World Cup qualifiers later this month.
However, Appiah, who leads the Sudanese side, has opted to stay away until his unpaid wages are settled.
Reports indicate that the former Black Stars boss even avoided a scheduled meeting with Sudan FA Vice President Osama Atta Al-Mannan after a recent visit to Ghana.
Despite the financial dispute, the Sudanese FA is reportedly working to resolve the matter as they aim to maintain stability in the team.
Sudan is set to face Senegal on March 18, followed by a clash with South Sudan on March 24 in the fifth and sixth rounds of Group B qualifiers. Currently, they lead the group with 10 points from four matches.
The team will then travel to Libya on March 17, 2025, ahead of their next qualification fixtures.
Meanwhile, Kwesi Appiah, who also serves as Head of Sporting Affairs at Asante Kotoko, was spotted in Kumasi on Thursday, attending the final burial of Francis Frimpong, popularly known as Nana Pooley.
