Grant has spent the majority of his career coaching and managing in Israel, winning a number of national league and cup victories with different teams, and also managing the Israeli national team for four years. Grant moved to England in 2006 to become Technical Director of Portsmouth before being appointed Director of football at Chelsea in July 2007. Two months later, in September 2007, following the departure of José Mourinho, Grant was appointed manager of Chelsea. Despite steering the team into the Champions League final, the League Cup final and contesting the Premier League title to the last day, his contract was terminated at the end of the season.〔(Grant sacked as Chelsea manager ) ''BBC Sport'' Retrieved 24 May 2008〕 Grant returned to Portsmouth as Director of football in October 2009, and was made manager the following month. After the club's relegation to the Football League Championship Grant resigned and, on 3 June 2010, was appointed as manager of West Ham United, a role he held up until 15 May 2011, when he was sacked after the club was relegated to the Football League Championship. On 13 January 2012, Avram Grant was named the new manager of Partizan Belgrade. After guiding Partizan to their fifth consecutive Serbian championship, Grant resigned on 14 May 2012. He is currently the coach of the Ghana national football team.〔http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/30230997〕 ==Biography == Avram Grant was born Avraham Granat on 6 February 1955 in Petah Tikva, Israel. His father, Meir Granat, was born into a firmly Orthodox Jewish family in Mława, Poland. Meir's family fled to the Soviet Union in 1941, during the Second World War; there they were exiled to Kolyma, Siberia, where most of the family died. In a 2008 interview Meir recalled burying his father, Avraham Granat—after whom Grant was named—with his own hands. After being repatriated to Poland after the war's end in 1945, Meir emigrated to Mandatory Palestine in violation of British policy of the time, and was arrested and detained in Cyprus.〔 He ultimately settled in Petah Tikva,〔 where he and Grant's mother Aliza Nisan, an Iraqi Jewish immigrant to Israel, met. Grant shortened his surname from Granat in the late 1980s.〔 He is married to the Israeli television personality Tzufit Grant. They have a son and a daughter. In October 2009, Grant's father died aged 82 from complications following surgery to remove a kidney stone. Grant had flown to Israel and was by his side.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Avram Grant's father dies )〕 On 20 February 2008, Chelsea Football Club announced that Grant had received anti-Semitic death threats from unknown sources. One of the packages sent to Grant's home was said to have contained a white powder that, after investigation, proved to be harmless. On 23 December 2009, ''The Sun'' reported that an unnamed Premier League manager had been confronted by its journalists outside an alleged brothel. The newspaper declined to name the manager, citing the risk of a privacy lawsuit. On 4 February 2010, it was reported that Grant was facing police questioning over an incident on 18 December 2009 at a Thai brothel in Horton Heath, Hampshire. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Avram Grant」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
