Former Chelsea boss Avram Grant has expressed his sadness for leaving his post as the coach of the Ghana Black Stars.

The Israeli trainer who is expected to leave the country after the expiration of his contract with the GFA on February 28th says he is sad he’s leaving the football loving nation as he enjoyed his stay in the West African country.

Grant failed to achieve his primary target of clinching the 2017 AFCON trophy as his side was unsuccessful in their attempt to reach the final of the continental showpiece after losing 2-0 to deserved winners Cameroon.

“I am sad am leaving Ghana,” he is quoted by starrfmonline.com

“I’ve hugely enjoyed my time in Ghana.”

“I will miss Ghana’s jollof”

The ex-Chelsea manager has been linked to a number of coaching jobs since last year.
