However, Appiah insists he is not that type, adding that none of the Black Stars players is richer than him.
"No Black star player is richer than me so I will never ask a player to buy me watch, shirt etc. I command respect,” he told Kumasi-based Angel FM.
Appiah was reappointed as Black Stars coach in 2017, taking over from Israeli manager Avram Grant.
