Black Stars of Ghana coach Avram Grant has resigned after a failure to win the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations crown.The Ex-Chelsea manager told the Ghana FA on Tuesday that he's unwilling to continue with 21 days left on his current deal.
The Under-fire Israeli is paying heavily for the country's semi-final heartbreak in Gabon.
The Black Stars were knocked down by eventual winners Cameroon, losing 2-0 to the Indomitable Lions.
Grant, whose contract expires at the end of February, has stood down before being pushed.
The former West Ham and Portsmouth manager has finally quits more than two years in the role.
"After an extremely amicable meeting with the president of Ghana FA, and following more than two successful years in charge of the national team, I've informed Mr Nyantakyi that time is right for me to move on to a new challenge and I thank him for the opportunity," Grant said.
"I've hugely enjoyed my time in Ghana taking over after the disastrous 2014 World Cup campaign and rebuilding the squad to reach the final in the African Cup of Nations for only the second time in 23 years, and also the semi final of this year's competition.
