'They know I will get money when he gets a big club' - Osei Palmer speaks on Joseph Paintsil drop

Owner and bank-roller of Ghana Division One League Zone Three side Tema Youth FC, Wilfred Kwaku Osei Palmer says GFA doesn’t want him to benefit from Joseph Paintsil's sale.

According to him, the Ghana Football Association knows when they take the player to the World Cup he will get a big club which will give him money as he’s responsible for the player’s development.

He says the player is in great form and the FA knows he will get a big club when he’s taken to the world cup, hence the decision to drop the player.

“I am not the agent of Joseph, but I own 10% in every sale or contract of the player. What’s happening in politics because Kurt Knows he(Joe) is on top form so e world cup will attract big teams to him so I will get money n contest with him for the GFA presidency.”
