Ex-Black Stars assistant George Boateng is out at RAEC Mons after a stuttering start to the Belgian Division One campaign.
Dutch-Ghanaian coach George Boateng, a familiar face in the Black Stars setup, has left his post as head coach of Belgian side RAEC Mons. The club confirmed the split after a difficult opening stretch of the Division One season, bringing a premature end to his spell in charge.
Boateng's record read three wins and three defeats from seven matches. That was not enough for the club's hierarchy, who said that despite his daily commitment and investment, results had fallen short of expectations and ambitions.
In its statement, Mons said the move is meant to give the squad fresh impetus and to find a coach who can unite the whole club around its identity and goals. The club also thanked Boateng for his work and wished him well in the next chapter of his career. Frederik D'Hollander steps in as interim manager while the search for a permanent successor continues.
Boateng, for his part, reflected on his time at the club and expressed gratitude to the management and supporters as he departed. For a coach who has worked across Europe and Ghana's national setup, this is another twist in a diaspora coaching journey that is far from finished. Expect his name to stay in the conversation as he looks for his next opportunity.
