The Ghana Football Association (GFA) could be dragged to court if former Black Stars coaches CK Akonnor and Milovan Rajevac are not paid what they are owed.
The two former coaches of the national team are unhappy that they are still owed salary arrears although they were sacked two years and one year ago respectively.
According to Sports Minister Mustapha Ussif, CK Akonnor and Milovan Rajevac want to drag the GFA to court to ensure they receive their money.
“Both of them have written to the Ghana Football Association threatening to go to court.
“We have appealed to them that we are committed to making sure we settle whatever we have agreed with them,” the Sports Minister said.
Meanwhile, Minister Mustapha Ussif has disclosed that both CK Akonnor and Milovan Rajevac have been paid an amount of $100,000 out of what they are owed.
The two coaches are still owed about $200,000.
“All of C.K and Milovan, once their contract was terminated, we sat with them, negotiated their exit and C.K was paid $100,000 immediately after the negotiation same as Milovan.
“We still owe both of them and we have a payment scheduled which I will admit we have not followed because of constraints of funds. As and when we get funds, we will be paying the two coaches,” Mustapha Ussif said.
The Minister for Youth and Sports made these revelations on Wednesday, during a press briefing in Accra.
