Milovan to ditch Laryea Kingston?

CREDIBLE information from an impeccable source has hinted 90 Minutes that Black Stars and Heart of Midlothian midfielder, Laryea Kingston could lose his Black Stars place when the World/Nations Cup qualifiers gets underway next month. The source disclosed that the national team handlers have not been impressed with the player's recent performances and attitude and are allegedly contemplating looking for his replacement before the first qualifying game gets underway next month. According to our source, the technical team are believed to be seeking the support of the FA before implementing their decision.

The source told us: “Milovan and his technical team are not happy with the recent performances of Laryea and his lifestyle off the pitch and are therefore having second thoughts about him before Ghana plays Benin. He has done very little to convince them of his readiness and fitness levels and so they don't want to take any risks in starting him any longer. They think his work rate has sunk very low and that gives much problems to the lateral defenders who have to work extra hard to cover for him,” the source added. “After the Egypt game last Wednesday, they discussed with the FA officials hoping to get the necessary backing because Laryea is gradually losing form and this is not the time to risk anything.” Laryea's performance has in recent times been relatively poor because of a distressing knee problem but it's believed he doesn't want to be operated upon for fear of losing his place in the national team during the qualifiers.
