Avram Grant Named 2015 International Manager Of The Year

Black Stars coach Avram Grant has been adjudged the international manager of the year at the 2015 Best of Africa Ceremony held in London. The former Chelsea boss won the award after aiding the Black Stars to finish second at the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations in Equatorial Guinea. The 60-year-old guided the West Africans to achieve a silver medal feat after just two weeks in charge of the team. The Israeli trainer who signed a two-year deal with the Ghana Football Association has been mandated to qualify the Black Stars to the 2017 Cup of Nations in Gabon and 2018 FIFA World Cup which will be hosted by Russia. Grant has only lost once in regulation time since taking up the Black Stars job.
