Speaking to Luv FM, the club\u2019s Communications Director, Sarfo Duku, said the interim technical team will be given the opportunity to prove their worth.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor now, we will allow him to work and see how things unfold,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cBased on his performance, we will know the next step to take. We expect them to bring their experience, exposure, and knowledge to bear.\u201d<\/p>\n
When asked about expectations, Sarfo cited the example of Di Matteo, who took over Chelsea as interim coach and won the UEFA Champions League in 2012.<\/p>\n
\u201cCaretaker coaches have good records. The classical example is Di Matteo at Chelsea,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
