Head coach of the Black Stars says that the African Cup of Nations was never his main target when he was handed the Black Stars coaching job.

The Serbian gaffer says that his main aim target when he was offered the Ghana job for the second time in September is to qualify the country to the World Cup.

Ghana crushed out of the tournament after losing to lowly ranked Comoros Island 3-2 on Tuesday when many expected the Black Stars to win to qualify.

The Black Stars lost their opening game to Morocco by 1-0 before drawing 1-1 with Gabon and losing 3-2 to the 132nd ranked Comoros Island as captain Andre Ayew was sent off in the 25th minute.

Many Ghanaians are calling for the head of the Serbian trainer who is on his second stint with the Black Stars after he was appointed in September last year but he says he is not going anywhere.

At the post-match conference, the Serbian trainer said, "My target was to qualify Ghana for the World Cup, this AFCON is my primary target"

"I am looking forward in qualifying Ghana for the World Cup in March" he said.

World Cup play-offs draw will be conducted this Saturday, January 22, 2022 with Ghana in pot 2.
