Ibrahim Tanko, a former Ghana assistant coach has been appointed the technical director of Ghana Premier League side, Accra Lions Football Club.
Tanko has signed a one-and-half year deal with the league debutants on Wednesday, February 16 as reported by Joy Sports.
Tanko will be working with English trainer, Francis James Nicholas, who was brought in as the new head coach of the team following the departure of German gaffer, Rainer Kraft.
Lions have been poor in the ongoing season, picking up just five wins in 17 league games.
However, in a bid to beef up their technical set-up, the Lions have identified the former Borussia Dortmund star as the person to improve the performance of the backroom staff.
Accra Lions occupy the 15th position on the league table after the first round of games. They have lost eight games so far this season in their first season in the Premier League.
Lions will be hosted by Elmina Sharks in the matchday 18 games at the Ndoum Sports Complex.
