Kim Grant becomes the first coaching casualty of the 2019/20

Kim Tyrone Grant has become the first coach to be sacked in the 2019/20 Ghana Premier League.

The new season is just a week old but the former Ghana international has set an unwanted record of being the first coaching casualty following his sacking by Hearts of Oak on Tuesday.

The 47-year-old gaffer was given a four-game ultimatum to save his job after their defeat against bitterest adversaries Asante Kotoko in the President Cup.

However, he failed to rescue their abysmal form as they were pipped 1-0 by Berekum Chelsea in the first match of the league at the Accra Sports Stadium on Sunday.

Grant’s position has been passed on to deputy trainer Edward Nii Odoom.
