Adam Larsen Kwarasey has rejected suggestions from former Ghana international Nii Odartey Lamptey that he regrets trading the opportunity to play for Norway for Ghana.
According to the player, he has no regrets and is happy that he was allowed to win the Black Stars jersey.
Kwarasey went through a difficult time with the Black Stars after changing nationality to play for Ghana, especially at the 2014 FIFA World Cup, where he was replaced by Fatau Dauda after the Group opening match loss to the United States.
The Valarenga goalkeeper made his Ghana debut in 2011 despite playing for Norway’s under-21 national team and went ahead to make 27 appearances, including at the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil.
“I know where Kwarasey came from and all that. If Kwarasey decides to open his mouth and tell you about what happened. He regrets playing for Ghana.” Odartey Lamptey told Ahomka FM.
The Norwegian-born Ghanaian has rejected Nii Odartey Lamptey’s suggestions that he had doubts about his time in Ghana.
Speaking to Citi Sports, Kwarasey said: “That is not true at all. I am very happy and grateful that I was allowed to represent Ghana. I love wearing that jersey and, for me, that was the one thing I had always wanted in terms of national team football. “
Kwarasey conceded 18 goals as goalkeeper for the Black Stars, keeping seven clean sheets in that time.
He currently plays for Norwegian Vålerenga and made 18 appearances for them in the league last season.
