Black Stars Head Coach Milan Rajevac Sacked After Poor AFCON Campaign


Just 3 days after Ghana’s poor run at the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) tournament in Cameroon, the Ghana Football Association(GFA) has sacked the Black Stars head coach, Milovan Rajevac. 

This comes after a communique was released by the Ministry of Youth and Sports, ordering the GFA to review the work and capacity of the coach. 

In the letter, the Minister for Youth and Sports Mustapha Ussif ordered the FA to reconstitute the Black Stars Management Committee.

The letter which was circulated after an emergency meeting with the FA reads in part; “The Ministry made it clear to the GFA that the people of Ghana have lost confidence in the capacity of the current technical team of the Black Stars to deliver success. The Ministry, therefore, asked the GFA to review the work and capacity of the Black Stars technical team led by the head coach Milovan Rajevac,” the Minister said in a statement.

“Following the emergency meeting, the Ministry, in accordance with his mandate asked the Ghana Football Association to reconstitute the Black Stars Management Committee,” he further added.
