GFA freezes former coach Avram Grant's final payoff
The Ghana FA has frozen financial entitlements to
former coach Avram Grant for failing to produce a
report on the team's failed attempt at clinching
the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations.

The former Chelsea manager supervised the team's
fourth-placed finish at the continental showpiece
in Gabon.

The Israeli gaffer failed to end a long wait for
an African crown and threw in towel after the
disappointing output.

Grant has failed to produce a report on the
country's poor showing in Gabon - leading to the
decision to freeze his final payoff.

Ghana FA vice-president George Afriyie has
revealed the 61-year-old will not receive his
salary until he produces the report.

“We have decided to hold on to the payment until
he produces his report, up till now he has not
submitted it, we are still waiting to receive
it,” he told the media.

“Until then we are not going to pay his last
salary.”

Grant enjoyed a decent run in charge in his first
year where he guided the side to clinch silver at
the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations co-hosted by
Equatorial Guinea and Gabon.

But his final year ended poorly after the team
finished fourth.
