The ex-Hearts of Oak Coach has however reveled he will only return to coaching should any Club in Ghana be prepared to give him $5,000 as a monthly wage.

"I have been in this field for long time and I know human nature. I know that not everybody likes me, so I knew people will come out with funny stories. These things don't worry me," He Tv3 Network.

"You can believe it, you can take it. I have decided that if I am out of the scene, I will be more relaxed because there won't be any pressure and I can do what I want if I can, that is why I decided to resign.

“"But if anybody is prepared to pay me $ 5,000 a month, I think that might kick me to come back to the scene. Not GH¢ 5,000, I want $ 5,000. If it comes through, fantastic, I will be back and that will make my retirement even better after retirement," he said.
