There have been a lot of talks about Black Stars players resorting to some spiritual machinations against each other.

It has been a raging issue with the senior men's national team with some coaches complaining about it in the past.

But speaker after announcing his 30 man squad that will face Morocco and Ivory Coast in international friendlies, Black Stars coach CK Akonnor denied such claims.

“No, not at all. I engage the players lot of times through zoom, and none of them have made mention of something like this,” he said.

“I have no idea about this (juju) in the camp,” Akonnor insisted.

There are instances where foreign born Ghanaian players have turned down the chance to play for Ghana due to their fear of being bewitched with juju as has been suggested by a GFA official in the past.
