Chief Executive Officer of AshantiGold Sporting Club, Frederick Acheampong has revealed that his outfit did not sack their head coach, John Christesen contrary to media speculation after his exit.

According to the Miners boss, the Danish coach left because there is no football going on in Ghana.

“The coach left because there is no football in Ghana and what we do always is training and playing friendlies,” Acheampong said in an interview.

“We wanted to suspend the contract till football resume in the country but the coach opted to go because he believes he can get offer else so we as management agreed to his proposal

“But the coach will be performing different functions for Ashantigold in Denmark by speaking to clubs for transfer of our players

“We allow him to go because we always pay him salaries while is no football and I believe our assistant coaches and the rest of the technical team can handle training sessions and friendly matches

“We will reopen negotiation with the coach if he would like to return to Ashantigold when football resumes in the country” he added.
