Veteran Ghanaian coach, Annor Walker, has left Ghana Premier League side, FC Samartex 1996 after just a season in charge.

A club statement read: “The Management of FC Samartex and Coach Annor Walker have agreed to part ways on mutual grounds.

“In the coming days, we shall provide information on the future direction of the Technical team.”

Reports indicate the Phobians are long admirers of his tactical prowess and are willing to offer him a deal ahead of the 2023/2024 season.

Annor Walker was in charge of the Black Galaxies when they crashed out of the delayed 2022 CHAN following a 2-0 defeat to Niger in the quarter-finals earlier this year.
