Aug 20 (Reuters) - Ghana-born David Duncan has become the first managerial casualty of South Africa's premier league season a week before it starts after losing his job at Free State Stars, the club said on its website (www.freestatestars.co.za).
Duncan, who previously worked at AshantiGold in Ghana, only joined Stars in June. They play their opening league match at champions SuperSport United on Aug. 30.
