BRAZIL 2014: KP Boateng’s issue with me was personal – Kwesi Appiah

Date:

James Kwesi Appiah, for assistant and head coach of the Black Stars of Ghana, has revealed his forgiving side by disclosing his readiness to forgive Kevin-Prince Boateng.

Boateng, a former Ghanaian international, was dismissed from the Black Stars camp during the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil following an altercation with certain members of the management team.

The Ghanaian, who was born in Germany, was rumored to have frequently insulted Kwesi Appiah during World Cup 2014 training.

But Kwesi Appiah claimed that he would only be willing to forgive and get past any reservations if KP Boateng had offered an apology.

“It’s not about him fighting for the players because the players were fighting as a unit. His issue was personal. It’s about being disrespectful. For me, I was not looking at that because players can behave in some way like that.

“When it happened, I left it for two days thinking he would come back to himself and will come and apologise but he decided to carry on with his life. If he had come to say coach what happened I’m sorry I would have let it go,” Coach Kwesi Appiah said.
