GFA defer decision on Stevanovic future

Goran Stevanovic will not know his fate as Ghana coach at least for another two weeks after a stormy meeting with the executive committee of the Ghana Football Association.
The Serbian failed to deliver on his promise to take Ghana to a fifth Nations Cup title in Gabon and Equatorial Guinea and refused to quit despite promising to do so.
And after a stormy meeting with the executive committee of the Ghana Football Association, the Serbian will be allowed to handle Ghana for the international friendly against Chile after which a decision will be made on his future.
Nyantekyie says the executive committee was inconclusive about whether to retain him.
KickOffGhana understands the Ghana Football Association will use the two week to do further consultations with the Ministry of Sports as well as check if there are clauses in his contract that will allow them to terminate the deal that expires next February.
Stevanovic has grown unpopular in the wake of the Nations Cup failure but with two 2014 World Cup qualifiers to come in June against Lesotho and Zambia and a 2013 Nations Cup qualifier in September there are those pushing for him to stay.
The Serbian told the executive committee his side had done well in reaching the semi-final and was said to be surprised by the strong public criticism that the finish has generated.
