The club confirmed the appointment on Monday, handing the seasoned tactician the responsibility of leading the team as it begins preparations for the new campaign with the aim of securing an immediate return to the Ghana Premier League.

Logarusic takes over from Frimpong Manso and arrives with more than 20 years of coaching experience spanning Africa, Europe and Asia.

His appointment is seen as a major statement of intent by Nations FC as they strengthen their technical setup for the challenges ahead.

The Croatian is well acquainted with Ghanaian football, having previously managed Ghana Premier League sides King Faisal, Asante Kotoko and AshantiGold.

His knowledge of the local game is expected to play a key role as the club targets promotion back to the top flight.

At the international level, Logarusic has also coached the senior national teams of Sudan and Zimbabwe, adding significant experience to an already impressive managerial résumé.

Nations FC believe the appointment underlines their ambition to build a competitive side capable of challenging for promotion after their relegation from the Ghana Premier League last season.

With an experienced coach now at the helm, the club will be hoping Logarusic can guide them back to the top flight and lay the foundation for sustained success in the years ahead.
