The Ghana Football Association has moved quickly to deny media reports suggesting they have sacked the entire backroom staff of the Black Stars.

Local media reports suggested the FA had written to the members of the backroom staff notifying them of their dismissal as they look forward to appointing a new coach and new members to constitute the technical team.

But Ghana FA spokesman Ibrahim Sannie Daara has rebuffed the claims as false.

"The reports that backroom staff of the Black Stars have been dissolved is untrue," he said

"The FA has not taken any decision and so those reports must be disregarded.

"Maxwell has been confirmed as the interim assistant coach and will continue to play his role until the appointment of a substantive coach.

"These reports are unhealthy for team building and cohesion and so we must stop it."
