Although he refused to disclose the issues, Mr Okudzeto said once they are settled, the former coach will be appropriately remunerated.

“I know that the [Sports] Ministry is in talks with Kwasi Appiah and at the appropriate time, ones the issues are ironed out, he would be paid,” he was categorical.
