“He said if coach Kwesi Appiah will only play him for 15 minutes, he will be grateful and accept it.”

“This is a player who was clubless but now playing regularly but I think the final decision is in the hands of the coach,” he added.

Sulley Muntari was one of Ghana’s best players between 2005 to 2014. He was sacked from the Black Stars camp during the Fifa World Cup in Brazil for indiscipline.

He has played 84 times for Ghana and scored 20 goals in the process.

Muntari currently plays for Spanish second-tier Albacete. The 34-year-old has made just two appearances since joining on loan in January.
