“This is an open secret that GFA officials influence the selection of players into the national team. There are some players who come to the national team but are not fit to be in the team,” Palmer revealed in an exclusive interview with the Daily Graphic.
He stated that, some top officials close to the team tend to consider players who are close to them for selection into the Black Stars instead of diagnosing the problems of the team from a technical perspective.

“Instead of we looking at things from a technical perspective, we tend to look for players very close to us to be part of the team, irrespective of their level or quality of skills they have.
“If you have your doubts, you can talk to the ex-coaches and they will tell you a lot.
Wilfred Osei Palmer was vying for the Ghana Football Association Chairmanship position but was disqualified in the process.
