Former Asante Kotoko striker, Abdul Fatawu Safiu believes Ghanaian players are always in a rush to leave the country because of poor treatment.
According to him, Ghanaian clubs won’t treat them well but will complain when players leave the league to countries like Israel.
Abdul Fatawu Safiu was shocked that goalkeeper William Essu who is contracted to Legon Cities is sick but the club only got to know after pictures of the ailing player went viral on social media.
“They will see us going to Iraq some of them will start talking nonsense Mtcheww.”
“Kaish Ghana football. You telling us your attention was just drawn to your very own goalkeeper health issue meaning you people never knew,” he bemoaned in a post on Twitter.
Meanwhile, in an official club statement from Legon Cities FC, the club says efforts are underway to help goalkeeper William Essu.
“Our attention has been drawn to pictures of our goalkeeper William Essu circulating on various social media platforms with discussions on traditional media platforms.
“We plead with the media and general public to be circumspect in the reportage of Essu’s health as all efforts are being made to address the player’s current situation,” a release from the Communication Division of Legon Cities FC said.
