AFCON: Why Ghana still insists on Milovan Rajevac for Black Stars – Asamoah Gyan

Former Ghana’s Black Stars captain, Asamoah Gyan, has revealed why their football federation insisted on Milovan Rajevac to lead the team to AFCON 2021 in Cameroon.

Gyan who is at the AFCON 2021 as an analyst with Supersport, said Ghana had no other choice when they checked the track record of the Serbian coach who led Black Stars to the final of the 2010 edition and the 2010 World Cup.

“Rajevac is a great guy tactically – he is very good and in 2010 we went to the final with him, he did a lot of great things for Ghana. He came back and he has started his magic. He came when there were doubts about whether we were going to win the other games and he delivered. I think he’s capable of repeating it again but it’s a different generation when working with different kinds of players that suit his tactics. Although he has returned, he’s doing a lot of things right, but this is a different era. Maybe he has changed his tactics a bit and we wish him the best of luck. Ghanaians will be praying for him and the team,” he told cafonline.

“What makes Rajevac a unique coach is that he’s a man of his words. He is somebody who stands firm on everything he says. He delivers, he doesn’t listen to what anybody says, his decision is final, that is the only thing I like about him because he’s a very strong character. Although sometimes he doesn’t express himself mostly in English – he’s got a translator – but he is a very strong coach which I like about him.”
