"The salary of players in the Ghana Premier League is not good. With this kind of salary, you won’t get certain qualities from the players so government must do something about it,” Grant told Metro TV.

The former Chelsea boss couldn't meet the expectations of teh Ghana Football Association, as the Black Stars failed to win gold in the just ended AFCON in Gabon.

Avram Grant was widely criticised by for lacking interest in monitoring the domestic league to help unearth local talents.
