Avram Grant’s spell as the head coach of the Ghanaian national football team might be reaching it’s end on February 5 of 2017 which is the date when the upcoming 2017 Africa Cup of Nations finalizes.
The 67 year old Israeli football manager took charge of Ghana on November 27 of 2014 and Grant has recently stated that he is thinking about making a return to coaching clubs as he is missing the intensity and various things that come with coaching clubs.
"The competitiveness and creativity in training every day of the week is different. There is no doubt that I miss it.
My contract ends after the African Cup of Nations Championships in Gabon early next year. Next year, at the end of my contract, it is possible I will coach a team in England." Avram Grant told a radio station.
Grant is a manager that has managed to reach the finals of big competitions but has not been able to push through and seal a significantly important piece of silverware. One of the former clubs of Avram Grant is Chelsea and he was able to push the Premier League title to the finals of the Champions League but ultimately lost in a penalty session.
The Israeli manager also managed to guide Ghana to the finals of the 2015 Nations Cup.
If Avram Grant does indeed decide to make a return to coaching clubs, he wants to do it on a high note and it would be by winning the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations and this is a title that the Ghanaian national football team has not won since 1982.
Ghana came close on winning the previous edition of the Nations Cup as they reached the finals but ultimately lost against Ivory Coast in an intense penalty session.
