Ghana chief denies fix claims

The president of the Ghana Football Association has denied agreeing for the national team to play in matches that others were preparing to fix.

An undercover investigation by Channel 4’s Dispatches and The Daily Telegraph identified two people, one a licensed Fifa agent and the other a Ghana club official, who said they could fix friendly matches involving the national side, who are currently involved in the World Cup.

The report claimed that GFA president Kwesi Nyantakyi had agreed for Ghana to play in two proposed matches after the World Cup, but he has denied that in an interview with the BBC.
