Former Ghanaian coach Kwasi Appiah has been named as the coach of Sudan’s national team, with reports indicating that he will receive a monthly salary of $50,000 for his role.
This appointment is accompanied by a three-year contract, and in addition to coaching, Appiah is expected to assume the position of technical director for Sudan’s national team.
Despite his new responsibilities, Appiah will continue to fulfil his role as the technical director of Asante Kotoko.
His Majesty Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, the club’s life patron, has granted him permission to take on the position of head coach for Sudan’s national team while retaining his position at Kotoko.
Furthermore, in his capacity as the technical director of Asante Kotoko, Appiah is slated to participate in the upcoming Ghana Football Association’s Executive Council elections.
This marks the second time that Kwesi Appiah has worked in Sudan, as he previously served as the head coach of the Sudanese top-flight club Al Khartoum.
During his tenure with Al Khartoum, he guided the team to a fourth-place finish in the league and secured qualification for the Confederation Cup.
