He will be unveiled at a press conference on Wednesday.
"The Ghana Football Association have appointed a new coach for the Black Stars. He is in the person of Goran Stevanovic," a GFA statement read.
"We have successfully negotiated with the coach and he would replace his compatriot, Milovan Rajevac.

His first competitive game in charge will be at next month's international friendly against a yet-be-named opponent before a trip to Brazzaville to play Congo in a 2012 Africa Cup of Nations Cup qualifier if a deal is reached.
