Ghana FA ban ‘Kung Fu fighting’ Dreams FC coach Vladislav Viric

The Disciplinary Committee (DC) of the Ghana Football Association (GFA) has banned and fined Head Coach of Dreams FC, Vladislav Viric for misconduct.

Vladislav Viric was charged for breaching Article 34(6)(d) of the GFA Premier League Regulations, Article 12(1)(b) and Article 12(1)(h) of the GFA Disciplinary Code, 2019.

In a Ghana Premier League game involving Dreams FC and Berekum Chelsea at the Theatre of Dreams in July, Viric exhibited improper behavior towards the assistant coach of Chelsea (Abdul Hanan-Abu) around the dressing room area, a conduct which in the opinion of the association is ungentlemanly and likely to bring the game into disrepute.

Viric also exhibited unsporting behavior towards the Berekum Chelsea assistant coach by punching and slapping him.

The Serbian gaffer pleaded guilty to the charges and asked for leniency from the Committee.

The Committee found Vladislav Viric guilty of the charges and therefore imposed a four-match on him, beginning from the start of the 2021/22 football season.

Viric was also fined GHc5000 and warned that any future misconduct shall receive a more severe punishment.
