Kwasi Nyantakyi finally reveals who flew money to Brazil during the 2014 World Cup

Ministry of Youth & Sports sat on the Brazil 2014 appearance fee - Nyantakyi lift the lid


Ahead of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, former GFA president Kwasi Nyantakyi has made some daring revelations about what we all didn't know even though a committee was set to probe what transpired.

In an interview monitored by Harrygraphic.com on Kings TV, the former CAF Vice President revealed what actually happened for Ghana to fly money to Brazil to pay players. He revealed that after the Bank Of Ghana released the money to the ministry, they were now dragging it with the FA. According to him, the FA was not the body that transported the money from Ghana to Brazil but rather the Ministry of Youth and Sports after they refused to cooperate with them.

Many have argued that how the payment issue was handled was the reason behind the abysmal performance of the stars who couldn't make it past the group stage. This made players like Sulley Muntari and Kelvin Prince Boateng confront other officials which made the media tag them as notorious.
