Attuquayefio has died at the age of 70 in 2015 following a long battle with cancer.

He was also national team coach for Benin and chalked a historic feat of leading the Squirrels to their first Nations Cup in 2004.

As a player, Attuquayefio won the Nations Cup itself, scoring twice in the group stages before starting the 1965 final as Ghana beat Tunisia 3-2.
