Former Ghana international Kim Grant has been appointed as the new technical director of Elmina Sharks ahead of the upcoming campaign.

Grant, who rescinded his contract with Bangladeshi side Saif Sporting Club one month ago, has assumed the role of technical director of the Elmina-based side ahead of the forthcoming campaign.

The 45-year-old is expected to use his valuable experience to steer the club to greater height having held the role with Ebusua Dwarfs before leaving to join the Bangladeshi side at the start of last season's league.

He will work with newly-appointed head coach Yaw Acheampong, who has been retained as head coach and also Felix Aboagye, who keeps his role as deputy coach.
