Southampton centre-back, Mohammed Salisu has turned down a chance to play for Ghana.
Salisu nixed a potential invitation to play for Black Stars ahead of the upcoming 2022 World Cup playoff games with the Super Eagles of Nigeria in March.
The former Valladolid star brought up an injury the first time he was invited by the Ghana Football Association, GFA during the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.

In the meantime, the 22-year-old has sounded a warning to Ghanaian football administrator, Alhaji Grusah.
He asked the administrator to avoid becoming involved in his matter.
Grusah told Atinka FM: “The Black Stars Chairman tasked me to speak to Salisu because he’s from Kumasi. I called his dad and he linked me to him.”

“Salisu flatly told me to stay away from his matter. He questioned me that if he was my son, would I advise him to play for Ghana?”
In reaction, Grusah made a vow not to intervene in the matter any longer.
He even added that he was not able to identify why the Southampton star takes issue with the GFA.
Meanwhile, Davide Ballardini’s men were bumped out of the ongoing 2021 Africa Cup of Nations in the group stage.
The 4x AFCON Trophy winners will hope to put the shame behind them when they go head-to-head against Nigeria in the World Cup qualifying playoff.
