Coach Avram Grant has been given a one-match ultimatum as head trainer of the Black Stars team.

The former Chelsea boss has been ordered by the Ghana Football Association to avoid defeat against Egypt in next month’s World Cup qualifier. The decision was made after a meeting between the Israeli and the executive committee of the Football Association last Friday.

The ex-West Ham United boss has been under pressure after failing to guide the Black Stars to defeat Uganda in a World Cup qualifier last week.

Ghana Sports Newspaper reports that the Coach could be facing the sack should he lose to Egypt.

The 60-year-old has a running contract with the Ghana Football Association until February 2017.
