Ghana to sue over Thomas Partey's denied entry to Canada

Ghana's government plans legal action after Thomas Partey's entry to Canada was denied over pending criminal proceedings in the United Kingdom. Partey, who plays for Arsenal and captains the Ghana national team, was blocked from traveling despite a pending appeal.

The Ghana Football Association warned that his absence could disrupt squad preparations for upcoming matches. Officials say they will take the case to court to demand a fair review of the immigration decision.

The move may spark broader debates about athletes' travel rights across borders. Ghana's foreign minister added that diplomatic channels will also be engaged to resolve the issue.
