Meanwhile, the GFA has settled on Dortmund assistant coach Otto Addo to assist Milovan.

Milovan replaces Charles Akonnor who was sacked last week over poor results.

His last game, a 1-0 defeat at South Africa means Black Stars are a point behind Bafana Bafana in the race to finish first in Group G to secure qualification to the final World Cup qualifying round.

He left the Ghana job in September 2008 and subsequently joined Al Ahli of Saudi Arabia.

He left that job to take up the job of the coach to the Qatari national team in 2011. He has since coached Slovenia’s Rudar Velenje, the Algerian national team and Thailand.

He was the Thailand coach between 2017 and 2019.
