| Coach Kwesi Appiah |
Myjoyonline reports that, Black Stars coach Kwasi Appiah has been relieved of his position as head coach of the senior national team.
The decision was reached today at a board meeting of the GFA.
Serbian trainer Milovan Rajevac will replace him as head coach of the Black Star.
Mr Appiah is being accused of bad faith after he granted a radio
interview in which he said that he had not asked for a technical
assistant, contradicting the position of the GFA.
Sources close to FA say the condition under which coach Milovan
accepted to Ghana’s was that he is made the substantive coach. He
refused to be technical assistant to Kwasi Appiah, the source said.
The GFA has scheduled a meeting with Coach Appiah tomorrow Friday, at which the FA will discuss his severance package with him.
Before Ghana’s game against Togo there were reports that the former
Ghana captain had been told he will be fired if he failed to win the
game in Lome after drawing 1-1 with Uganda at the Baba Yara stadium in
Kumasi on Saturday.
Appiah’s popularity in Ghana dwindled immensely after Ghana’s poor
World Cup outing, with many Ghanaians displeased with his perceived lack
of control of the Black Stars team.
