i am very surprised that you refered it to “xenophobic tendncies”, this is a bad generalization….if you followed these players well u would know that each player had his own story, most of them weren’t good enough or didn’t taake things seriously. the last example was junior agogo, he missed training sessions a lot, he had a reputation of staying late at night hanging out in bars and he didn’t do something to convince the fans or the club of his abilities (4 goals aren’t enough); on the other hand, there are players lik akoute mansah and willian mensah who play at the egyptian league and are shining with their teams because they are good.

certainly, it isn’t xenophobic tendencies!!

Yeah, Tamim.

in the history of Ghanaian football there are only a handful of players who have prospered there mainly due to xenophobic tendencies.

Examples range from Sammy Adjei, Junior Agogo and others. The few who have done well include Felix Aboagye.

“It’s devilishly difficult to be a foreigner – especially a black foreigner – to play in the North African leagues.”
