‘If I had juju, I’d play for Real Madrid and make money, not bench Kwarasey’

‘If I had juju, I’d play for Real Madrid and make money, not bench Kwarasey’ – Fatau Dauda

Goalkeeper Fatau Dauda has dismissed claims that he influenced the ejection of Adam Kwarasey from the Black Stars starting lineup at the 2014 World Cup and subsequently from the national side entirely.

Kwarasey went into the tournament as Ghana’s Number 1 and started the Black Stars’ opening match against the USA.

However, after losing 2-1, Kwarasey was dropped for the Black Stars’ next group game against Germany and has since struggled to get back into contention.

Rumours surfaced that Fatau had used his influence in the side and his relationship with the other players, particularly the defenders to get Kwarasey benched.

Others felt something more mystical was responsible for Kwarasey’s unfortunate match, with claims that Fatau Dauda had influenced his rival’s performance with ‘juju.’

He, however, told host of The Tracker on Citi TV that those claims were far-fetched.

Dauda added that if he indeed had access to black magic, there were bigger ambitions than just keeping goal for the Black Stars that he would have used it for.

According to him, he wouldn’t be playing local football but have put himself in the Real Madrid or Barcelona squad and made himself a healthy amount of money.

“Ghanaians have been saying it and I’ve been hearing it. That’s how our job is, you hear a lot of things about you.

If I had juju, I would go and play outside with Real Madrid or Barcelona and make big money. I train and I pray for God to protect me from injuries so I don’t know where these rumours are coming from.”

The Ghana International leads the charts for the Welsh side, with 11 goals in all competitions so far this season. With Swansea reportedly experiencing some financial instability following their relegation from the Premier League in 2018, Ayew is one of the names that have popped up on the exit list, due to his very high wages. The likes of Daniel James and Oli McBurnie have all left during that period, together with Jordan Ayew and Wilfried Bony among others have helped to significantly lower the wage bill. Tottenham Hotspurs and Championship leaders Leeds United have been identified as front runners for the Ghana international’s signature.
