Stop tagging female footballers as lesbians; we're not - Adjoa Bayor

Former Black Queens captain Grace Adjoa Bayor has rubbished allegations of being a lesbian. She also slammed individuals accusing female footballers of being lesbians.

The ex-footballer was speaking to Sokoohemaa Kukua on Rainbow Radio 87.5FM today [Thursday].

Adjoa Bayor when asked if she was ever confronted by her colleague footballers in a sexual way answered in the opposite.

She said, ‘’none of my colleagues expressed interest in me. I was never confronted in that regard. I want to also deny claims that female footballers are lesbians. That is false. Throughout my career as a footballer, I never witnessed any acts or relationship between any of my colleagues.’’

She also disclosed she broke her virginity at age 32 and allowed her fiancée to have sex with her after dating him for five years.

Adjoa Bayor was a member of the World All Stars team to play against the China women's national football team in April 2007 at Wuhan, China.

She has played for Ghatel Ladies in Accra, Ghana and has also played for FC Indiana in the United States recently.

[1] Bayor joined on 21 January 2009 to FF USV Jena. In September 2007 Adjoa Bayor captained the Ghana national team at the World Cup in China.

Although Ghana did not get out of the group stage, Bayor scored a remarkable goal from a free kick just outside Norway's penalty area when she faced the wrong way as another player ran up and jumped over the ball, then she casually turned and shot.

She was voted African Women Footballer of the Year in 2003 by CAF and was in contention in 2004 and 2006. She was subsequently shortlisted for the best female African player for 2010 which she eventually won beating the likely favourite, Perpetual Nkwocha 2003 — African Women Player of the Year.
