Gernot Rohr linked with Black Stars coaching job

Former Super Eagles handler Gernot Rohr is being linked with the vacant Black Stars coaching job.

Rohr was relieved of his position as Eagles’ coach following the team’s struggles in the qualifiers for the 2022 FIFA World Cup.

On his part, the Ghana FA sacked Milovan Rajevac following the Black Stars’ disappointing campaign at the ongoing AFCON in Cameroon.

And the Eagles will face the Black Stars in the 2022 World Cup play-offs in March.

And according to ghanaweb.com, a source close to Rohr claims the German is open to the Black Stars job.

“Gernot (Rohr) is very much open to the Ghana job. Ghana football has great potential and his experience of the African game will help him steer the team in the right direction.

“His knowledge of African football is deep especially with West African teams. Besides Nigeria, he also handled Burkina Faso and Niger Republic. Rohr also had a stint with Gabon in 2017. He has now he quality to handle the Black Stars.

“Gernot achieved FIFA World Cup qualification with Nigeria in 2018 and is keen on guiding Ghana to the 2022 edition. Ghana has big name players like Andre Ayew, Thomas Partey, Daniel Amartey amongst others who are hungry to play at the FIFA World Cup and Gernot can help turn that dream into a reality.”
