INJURIES A message on the website of the Ghanaian Football Federation states that Majeed Ashimeru will have to drop out of the international game against Nigeria due to injury. The message is causing a lot of controversy in Ghana.

GhanaSoccerNet finally comes up with news that confirms the message from the football federation. The website claims to have seen an e-mail from Anderlecht to the Ghanaian Football Federation.
