Agent for Majeed Waris, Yusif Chibsah has confirmed that his player was dissappointed about after being left out of the Black Stars final 23-man squad for the 2019 AFCON.
The Club Consult Africa representative explained that Majeed Waris got to know of his exclusion from the squad through the media before he was officially informed.
"It was always not going to be easy to be left out of the final squad for the Afcon but the Coach and his technical team has the final authority over the team. Majeed Warris was disappointed for his exclusion when he saw the news circulating on social media before he was informed officially", he told Ashhfm.
"Majeed Waris locked himself up in his room because he was in a bad mood after seeing it on social media,so that was why he refused to open the door when someone knocked", he explained why Warris couldn’t talk to any official after the list was announced.
Chibsah also refuted earlier claims which indicated that Majeed Warris had boycotted a meeting to inform him that he has been dropped.
"The meeting that Majeed Waris boycotted was not official because the players who couldn't make up the final squad were called individually"
According to Chibsah Captain of the Black Stars Dede Ayew also informed some of the players who had been dropped from the squad.
"I heard Dede Ayew informed some of the players of their exclusion but I don't know how authentic that news was...Abdul Fatau was informed officially by the technical team"
"Ideally,it is the technical team that inform players of their exclusion from the team but it will depend on the chan of communication in the team so it would not be bad if Dede was told to inform the players"
He called for unity ahead of the tournament as Ghana hopes to win its first AFCON title since 1982.
"This is the National team and it is not the first time dropping players so we must all be united and support the team ahead of the Afcon tournament"
