Serbian gaffer Milovan Rajevac reveals driving force in Ghana return

Serbian trainer Milovan Rajevac has revealed the driving force on his return as coach of the Black Stars.

The 67-year-old is back for a second stint with the Black Stars and has hit the ground running with a back-to-back win over Zimbabwe.

He has been tasked to win the AFCON 2021 and also secure qualification to the World Cup next year.

Rajevac in an interview revealed the driving in accepting the Black Stars coaching job for the second time.

“I was aware of the challenge and the task because nobody was more motivated than me to go to the World Cup specially to take Ghana because this was the biggest success in my career in Ghana and we have a history”

“Very often I rewind in my mind the match against Uruguay and the famous penalty so this is something that drives me forward and I believe we can achieve even more so the motivation is high and nobody wants this more than me” he said.

Rajevac, in his first reign as Ghana’s coach, was named African Coach of the Year in 2010 after impressive outings at the AFCON and World Cup respectively.

He made history by leading the Black Stars in 2010 to reach the quarter-finals at the World Cup in South Africa.

Few months earlier, he led Ghana through to the final of the Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) in Angola in which they fell to Egypt.
