Milovan Rajevac will receive in excess of $270,000 as a severance package following the termination of his contract by the Ghana Football Association.
The GFA in a statement dated Friday, January 21, 2022, sacked the Serbian coach on the back of the shambolic performance of the Black Stars at the Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon.
Milovan was appointed right after Coach CK Akonnor was sacked and he was tasked to qualify the Black Stars to the World Cup and to win the AFCON.
Milovan was placed on a monthly salary of $30,000.
Therefore, following his sack just three months into his appointment, Milovan Rajecvac has asked for his full salary for the remaining nine months to be paid to him.
That will amount to $270,000 in severance package to Milovan Rajevac.
Sports Journalist Gary al-Smith in explaining the rationale behind the decision of the FA and the Ministry to sack Milovan said the government felt it was the right decision to make as they work to restore the glory of the national team.
Milovan rejected a three-month compensation and the government accepted to pay the full $270,000 severance package after relieving Milovan Rajevac of his position as the head coach of the Black Stars.
