Ghana’s new coach, Guido Buchwald would earns 30,000 dollars monthly.
An unimpeachable source at the Ghana Football Association (GFA) told GNA Sports on Monday that the German “will not earn a thing more than what former coach Claude Le Roy had.”
Coach Le Roy was reportedly earning around 30,000 dollars monthly, the highest ever paid for a trainer in the history of Ghana football.
This is contrary to media reports that most supposed Licensed “A” coaches that the GFA had contacted demanded not less than 50,000 dollars.
The source was categorical that “what a lot of people do not understand is that when you are coaching a good team, much of the money is made out of match bonuses.”
Le Roy earned twice what the players’ took for every win.
The source said the GFA has concluded contractual terms with the coach who is expected to arrive in Ghana later in the week ahead of the Black Stars World Cup and African Cup of Nations joint qualifier with Gabon slated for the Ohene Djan Stadium, Accra on Sunday.
The GFA is expected to outdoor the new coach on Monday, June 23.
Capped 74 times for Germany, the former defender previously managed Japanese side Urawa Red Diamonds and Alemannia Aachen in his native country.
As a player his best career game was probably the final of the 1990 FIFA World Cup final when he effectively marked the Argentine creative genius Diego Maradona, earning him the nickname 'Diego'.
Buchwald who succeeds French coach Claude Le Roy was also part of Germany's disappointing 1994 World Cup squad.
The GFA head-hunted for the French’s successor in a move that drew names including Klaus Toppmoller and former trainer Ralph Zumdick close to the vacant position.
