match, a 0–2 loss, he was dropped for the next three games as Ghana bowed out in the round-of-16 against Brazil. On 12 January 2007, the Confederation of African Football voted Kuffour as a member of the Top 30 African Players of All Time. Personal life In 2003, Kuffour revealed to the BBC, in an interview for the 'Heart and Soul' documentary, that he wanted to be a priest or a missionary when he retired from football. In the interview, he also spoke about the surprised reaction of some German players as he prayed before games, while also addressing the support he received from fellow Ghanaian Christians, especially those living in Munich. In the same interview, Kuffour also talked about the death of his daughter Godiva in a drowning accident in January that year. He explained that his Christian faith gave him the courage to face the future. He is the uncle of the American soccer player Matai Akinmboni. Life after football Punditry In 2010, after retiring from playing football, Kuffour entered into sports punditry working primarily with South Africa-based channel SuperSports, debuting with the 2010 FIFA World Cup. On 8 February 2015, he was shaved as he vowed on live TV within the SupersSports studios following the Black Stars failure to win the AFCON 2015 as he predicted. In 2018, he took a break from football punditry for the 2018 FIFA World Cup upon the advise of his doctor due to excessive travelling. Football management In August 2013, Kuffour was appointed as a board member of the Ghana-based football club Kumasi Asante Kotoko. On 2 October 2014, whilst serving as a board member, he was announced as the new CEO for Kumasi Asante Kotoko after being appointed by the club owner Otumfuo Nana Osei Tutu II. By 15 October, it had become apparent that the early announcement had caused a renege on that decision by the Otumfuor. In February 2016, Kuffour was named as member of Black Starlets, the Ghana national under-17 football team, after playing for the team in the 1990s. On 16 January 2020, he was appointed as a member of the management board of the Black Stars, the Ghana senior national team.
