The Ghana Football Association (GFA) will on Monday formally outdoor Milovan Rajevac as the new coach of the national football team, Black Stars. The 54-year Serbian has reached a two-year term with the GFA and will begin his tenure by guiding the Black Stars in an international friendly against Tanzania on Wednesday, August 20, in Arusha. Rajevac holds a UEFA Professional coaching license and is expected to arrive in Accra this Saturday. The former FC Red Star Belgrade trainer who will earn 360 thousand Euros annually has been tasked to qualify the Stars to the Angola 2010 African Cup of Nations and the World Cup in South Africa with distinction as the anticipated grade and goal of Ghanaians. His monthly remuneration of 30,000 Euros is far below the 200,000 Euros and 40,000 Euros quoted by former France captain Didier Deschamps and former Austrian trainer Josef Hickersberger. Kwasi Nyantakyi, President of the GFA told GNA Sports that the coach is currently the trainer of Serbia’s FK Borac who are participating in the UEFA Cup competition and has the drive to lead the Stars to the required destination. The coach is expected to terminate his appointment with FK Borac after Thursday’s UEFA Cup second qualifying round first leg clash against Locomotiv Sofia of Bulgaria. “Milo” as he is formally called previously coached in Sweden, China, Germany and Qatar and is seen in East Europe as the “Master Tactician” won the race ahead of Ralf Zumdick and Josef Hickersberger due largely to his track record which includes being adjudged Serbia’s best last year. The President of the FA said it was crucial for Ghanaians to rally behind the coach who replaces Claude Le Roy who turned down an offer to renew his contract last May. Nyantakyi said the coach whose first national team job would be with the Black Stars “is hungry for success and has proved to have a great insight on all our players.” He said even though the trainer who turned down an offer to coach the Serbian national team might not be a big name, “his zeal and hunger for success is evident that he will be up to the task.” The Serbian speaks average English and is expected to communicate with the players through an interpreter who will earn a maximum of 2000 euros monthly to be borne by both parties. The President said he was convinced language will not be a barrier “since football itself is a universal language.” Players of the Black Stars have already been informed about the appointment of the coach who has also been tasked to groom a winsome local team to feed the senior team.
