Kingsley Sarfo opts out of Black Stars squad

Ibrahim Tanko has confirmed midfielder Kingsley Sarfo will not honor his Black Stars invitation after he was caught in the web of indecision.

Sarfo has attracted the fancy of Sweden, days after receiving his Ghana call-up, with the Scandinavians looking to cap the precocious talent.

The Sweden FA had moved to prevent Sarfo from playing for Ghana by asking the country's immigration authorities to hand the midfielder Swedish citizenship.

And Tanko has asked Sarfo to firm up his decision on who to represent at international level.

"Kingsley Sarfo will not join the team for the Ethiopia ,USA and Mexico matches, he needs to settle especially to decide on either playing for Ghana or Sweden." Black Stars assistant coach Ibrahim Tanko told Kumasi-based Nhyira FM

Sarfo was born in Ghana to Ghanaian parents and moved to Sweden just three years ago after playing for the Ghanaian side Golden Booth Academy.

He has not played for any country at the international and since he has not yet acquired Swedish citizenship he can only play international football for Ghana.
