Black Stars coach, Milovan Rajevac, has been relieved off duties<\/p>\n
The decision was made after a meeting between the Ministry of Youth and Sports and the Ghana Football Association in the aftermath of Ghana\u2019s group stage exit from the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations.<\/p>\n
Rajevac, 67, who returned for a second stint with the Black Stars in September 2021, supervised an abysmal AFCON campaign in Cameroon where Ghana picked up only one point from their three group stage outings, finishing bottom of Group C.<\/p>\n
The Sports Ministry summoned the GFA to a meeting on Friday January 21, 2022 in which they directed the country\u2019s football governing body to review the coach\u2019s position because the people of Ghana \u201chave lost confidence in the technical team\u2019s ability to deliver success\u201d.<\/p>\n
