Ghana Soccer Association Fires All National Team Coaches

ACCRA, Ghana (AP) – The Ghana soccer association has fired all its national team coaches in a drastic and unexpected move.

That includes the coaches for the men's and women's senior national teams and all men's and women's youth teams. In all, nine coaches were removed.

The Ghana Football Association said it ''dissolved the technical teams of all national teams with immediate effect'' and ''extends its appreciation to all coaches and members of the respective national teams for their contributions.''

The GFA gave no reason for the decision.

The move means Kwesi Appiah has been fired as coach of the men's senior team for the second time.
