Chris Hughton has been sacked as manager of Ghana.

The former Republic of Ireland international failed to guide them out of the group stage at the Africa Cup of Nations.

Hughton is believed to be out of the running to replace Ireland boss Stephen Kenny, with England Under 21 manager Lee Carsley understood to be the frontrunner.

Group E at the Africa Cup of Nations is finely poised heading into the final round of fixtures later.

Leaders Mali - on four points - play third placed Namibia, while South Africa take on Tunisia.

Both games are underway from 5.
