SULLEY MUNTARI IS NOT FIT TO PLAY AGAINST NIGERIA IN THE PLAY-OFF GAMES – CHARLES TAYLOR
Ghana Premier League legendary, Charles Taylor insisted that Sulley Muntari is not fully fit for the 2022 Fifa World Cup playoff clash against Nigeria.
Following Muntari’s impressive performance in the ongoing 2021/2022 Ghana Premier League, Muntari has dominated the local media with his marvellous performance.
After starring in Hearts of Oak’s 2-1 win against Asante Kotoko in the president cup, fans called for the inclusion of the former AC Milan and Inter Milan super midfielder in Black Stars squad for the two crucial games later this month.
However, Charles Taylor, who is a former Asante Kotoko and Hearts of Oak ace says the 37-year-old must concentrate on gaining full fitness at the club and not to think of returning to the Black Stars.
“Sulley Muntari is not a Black Stars material for the Nigeria clash. We need serious players!,” he told Accra based Angel FM.
“He should focus on Hearts of Oak so he gains fitness. He can be called when Ghana qualifies for the World Cup,” he added.
Ghana will host the Super Eagles at the Cape Coast Stadium on March 25 before travelling to Abuja for the return game on March 29.
