Fabrizio Ravanelli linked with vacant Ghana coaching job

Published on: 01 March 2017

Italian coach Fabrizio Ravanelli is the latest name to be linked with the Ghana job after Israeli trainer Avram Grant resigned.

The former Italy, Juventus, Lazio, Marseille and Middlesbrough striker had a spell as Coach of Juve’s Primavera youth team before moving on to French side Ajaccio.

“Ravanelli is a youth developer, and has what it takes to discover talent in the domestic league,” said Ravanelli’s Ghana-based advisor Idowu Ismail Ewa in The Sun.

"Ghana has enormous talent in its league, and it will be of great benefit to the country to have such a man - with a lot of knowledge for unearthing talents - in charge of the national team.

"This will help make the league more attractive."

His coaching career has fewer limelights with a stint in the French Ligue 1 with Ajaccio.

Tuttomercatoweb in Italy also note that Ghana are in contact with 48-year-old Ravanelli for the job.
