Recently retired defender Serge Akakpo was a regular for the Togolese national team during his playing career, accumulating 58 appearances with 2 goals while maintaining a lengthy club career in Europe. Now appointed in a General Manager role with the Sparrow Hawks setup, Akakpo will be important when it comes to balancing the interests of the national team players while making it easier for new manager Paulo Duarte to keep up with the player pool. TogoFoot summarizes a Canal+ interview with Akakpo where he speaks in more detail about his new appointment and how his past experience will benefit him.
