Black Stars head coach Otto Addo has revealed that Joseph Paintsil is not at the top of the pecking order.
This, he explains, is the reason whyy he did not name him in his 29-man squad for the friendlies against Brazil and Nicaragua.
Paintsil has started for his club well this season, scoring four goals so far. His exclusion from the team shocked many.
“[Joseph Paintsil] was very close. Joseph is doing well. It would have been good for him to play the Japan and Chile matches to show more of himself but he had some problems so he decided to leave the team and also he wanted to start with his team. At the moment, I see others ahead of him,” Otto Addo said in his presser.
Ghana will face Brazil on Friday at 6:30 PM.
