“It would be difficult for me to fight against my former team,” he continued when pressed further on why he does not want the Ghana job.

Rohr was sacked as Eagles coach just few weeks before the commencement of this year’s AFCON in Cameroon.

During his time as Eagles coach he qualified the team for the 2018 World Cup and two AFCONs (2019 and 2021).
