If it was up to me you would’ve been in Qatar – Otto Addo to Joseph Paintsil

The President of Division One League side Tema Youth, Wilfred Osei Kwaku Palmer has revealed that if it were up to Black Stars head coach  Otto  Addo alone,  Joseph Paintsil would have been in Qatar with the Black Stars.

He says that the coach sent the Genk player a message suggesting that he was not alone in making decisions on players who head to the World Cup.

GFA President Kurt Okraku has in the past revealed that they will not leave Black Stars call ups in the hands of only one person which is the coach.

‘’ I’m sorry Joe, unfortunately, you do not make the 26-man squad; if it was up to me,I would have called you but I’m not the only one doing this (selection) “ This is what Otto Addo told Joseph Painstil according to Osei Kwaku Palmer in an interview on Pure Fm.
