Ghana Government Slams Canada for Denying Thomas Partey Visa
The Ghanaian government has criticized Canada for denying Thomas Partey a visa based on pending UK legal proceedings, preventing his play against Panama. The decision prevents the midfielder from participating in the match scheduled for June 17 in Toronto.
Ghana's Ministry of Foreign Affairs emphasized that no conviction or judicial declaration of guilt has been made. Officials argued that the Canadian immigration department ignored the principle of presumption of innocence.
The government described the move as arrogant and extremely unfair to the Black Stars player.
