Joseph Paintsil Explains Absence from Black Stars Squad for International Friendlies

Joseph Paintsil, who is  currently plying his trade with LA Galaxy in the United States, has clarified the reason behind his inability to join the Black Stars squad for the upcoming international friendlies against Nigeria and Uganda.

In a heartfelt message, Paintsil revealed that due to his recent transfer to a new club in the United States, he is required to undergo additional immigration documentation procedures. As a result, he is unable to travel outside the United States until the process is completed, rendering him unavailable for selection for the friendly matches.

Paintsil expressed his regret at not being able to join his teammates for the upcoming fixtures and assured the management of the national team that he has duly communicated the reasons for his absence. Despite his inability to participate, Paintsil extended his best wishes to the new head coach, Otto Addo, and his colleagues, emphasizing his unwavering support for the team.
