There has been widespread reports in the local media that the Ghana Football Association(GFA) has reached a truce with the Ministry of Youth and Sports about the appointment of Irishman Chris Hughton as the new Black Stars coach.
Over the last few days, there has been reports of bickering between the GFA and the Sports Ministry about who becomes the next Black Stars coach after the sacking of Serbian trainer Milovan Rajevac.
The GFA is said to prefer Borussia Dortmund's assistant coach Otto Addo as the new Black Stars coach whiles the government through the Ministry of Youth and Sports also prefer Chris Hughton.
On Saturday reports emerged that the Sports Ministry has held a meeting with the GFA where the two sides have agreed to the appointment of Chris Hughton as the new coach.
Speaking in an interview with Kumasi based Light FM, Spokesperson for the GFA, Henry Asante Twum says no meeting has taken place between the two bodies over the appointment of a new Black Stars coach.
"There has been a countless report in the media that the GFA has met the Sports Ministry on appointment of a new coach but I can confirm to you that the GFA has not met any member from the Ministry on new Black Stars coach since we were kicked out from the competition so the story is not true" he added.
