Ghana's Football Association (GFA) says a decision on the future of coach Goran Stevanovic has been delayed.

The GFA had been expected to announce whether the Serb would continue his post on Wednesday.

But the GFA has now called for an additional meeting to further deliberate on the decision.

"We have decided to call an emergency Executive Committee meeting to address some outstanding issues," said GFA president Kwesi Nyantakyi.

"We want to make sure that when a decision is taken, it is in the best interest of the country. We want every blade of grass covered," Nyantakyi told the GFA's official website.

"We are sorry for the delay but it is necessary for the best decision to be taken," added Nyantakyi, whose body has sought the opinions of many stakeholders in the past month.

The coach has come under intense pressure since his side failed to win the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations earlier this year.

Heavily fancied before the tournament, the Black Stars Ghana lost 1-0 to eventual champions Zambia in the Nations Cup semi-final - before being beaten by Mali in the third-place play-off match.

On 22 February, the GFA met to analyse the team's performance in Equatorial Guinea and Gabon - saying afterwards that it would study the details of Stevanovic's contract before deciding whether to keep him or let him go. The 45-year-old's current deal expires in January 2013, the same month as next year's Nations Cup will be held.
