According to sources at the corridors of the football governing body, the committee intends to complete the interviews with the three coaches( Kwesi Appiah, Hugo Broos and Willy Sagnol)  by Sunday, April 2 after which it will submit its final report on a preferred coach for the Black Stars to the Executive Committee for approval.
