Laryea Kingston says consistency is key for new Ghana coach Chris Hughton

Laryea Kingston says new Ghana coach Chris Hughton will get more out of his team by keeping the majority of the current squad intact.

Hughton was recently appointed to the Black Stars after Otto Addo parted ways following a disappointing showing at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

Former Ghana midfildier Kingston is convinced that a player overhaul will hinder any progress the nation has made over the past few years.

Kingston said on Ghanasoccernet: "I believe he'll still maintain at least 70% of the players that went to the World Cup in the current squad.

"If you look at the squad that we took to the World Cup, they are not bad at all. If you try to come in and change everybody on the ground, I don't think you have a solid team.

"You go in and you building a team, you try to bring in the quality ones that will come and give the regular players in the team competition. That's how to build a team.

"If you have 70% out and leave 30% which means you are now coming to build the foundation from the scratch and it will take longer."
