Kevin Prince-Boateng, the former Black Stars midfielder, has revealed that Sulley Muntari acted out of character and made threats against Black Stars officials when both were expelled from the Black Stars camp during the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
Their expulsion from the camp came as a result of reported misconduct directed at the management committee due to unpaid bonuses.
Boateng explained that they were handed a letter the morning before Ghana’s game against Portugal, with just 15 minutes to vacate the hotel.
He recounted that as they left the premises, Muntari, who was visibly upset, shouted that he would ‘harm everyone’.
“They said leave the hotel in 15 minutes, give your cards back and everything and I was like ‘Wow!’. It was the third game of the group stage so if we win, we go through. We lose, we go out. (The meeting was) the night before (the game)…me and Muntari argued with the president. So I came out of my room and I knocked on the door, I said ‘Sulley’ and he said ‘Yeah, me too’. They kicked both of us out on gameday,” he said on Vibe with FIVE podcast.
“I saw them when I was going out. The worst moment is when you are going out of the World Cup with your luggage. And Muntari was in the background going ‘Huh, I will kill everybody’. So we walked and the guys said ‘Bro we are so sorry. Should we talk to them?’ And I said ‘If you want to talk to them, you spoke to them already’ and I said a real would say we are all not playing,” he added.
It was reported that during the outburst, Sulley Muntari had allegedly slapped Moses Armah Parker, a former management committee member.
