Ex-Ghana coach Kwesi Appiah demands $175,000 in outstanding salary

Former Black Stars head coach Kwesi Appiah has written to the Ghana Football Association (GFA) demanding his unpaid salary arrears.

Appiah is owed five months salary and one match winning bonus.

With his salary believed to be $35,000, the FA and the Sports Ministry must cough up $175,000 to settle him.

Joy Sports sources understand, the letter was written by his lawyer Thaddeus Sory and they want the payment to be done within two weeks.

Appiah is said to have been angered by the GFA directive that he should return ‘everything handed to him’ which aided his work as Black Stars coach. Appiah complied and returned the car last Friday.

A few days after, Appiah demanded the GFA and the Government to pay him his outstanding salaries. However, it is unclear whether he will seek legal action if he doesn’t receive his money within the two-week deadline.

Kwesi Appiah’s second stint, which lasted two-and-half years, ended in December.

He was replaced by his assistant, Charles Akonnor.
