“Rumour mongering is becoming the order of the day in football…Just to be clear, I do not have a scheduled meeting with Chris Hughton”
“The FA, having assessed the work of the technical team of the Black stars, and having engaged all relevant stakeholders, is working to keep Otto, Didi, George and Chris in their respective roles for all immediate assignments”
“Official announcement expected shortly…. Other need areas of the technical team that the Coach has identified is being addressed” he posted on Facebook.
