Former Ghana Coach Avram Grant set to join Bulgarian team

Former Black Stars Coach Avram Grant is set to join Bulgarian giants Levski Sofia after he parted ways with the West Africans.

The former Chelsea manager has been out of the game since leaving the Black Stars but the veteran is certain joining the Bulgarians.

"I have completed the meeting with officials of Levski Sofia and I can say I am 99% certain that a deal will be reached in the next days," Grant told Ghanasoccernet.com.

"There are just some few points to be ironed out but I am sure that we can complete the deal for me to coach the club with so much promise.

"I am returning to London this afternoon and I am sure over the next few days if the few points left are ironed out I will join the club."

Avram Grant led Ghana to second place at the Africa Cup of Nations in 2015, in Equatorial Guinea.

However, his second attempt at the Africa Cup of Nations ended in a disaster when he placed fourth losing to Burkina Faso in the third and fourth playoff.

Grant also had spells with Portsmouth and West Ham United.
