Since the Black Stars’ recent qualification for the World Cup in Qatar, the debate over Salisu and some International based players have re-emerged.

Mr Twum, however, disclosed that attempts from the last three Black Stars coaches were turned down by the 22-year-old as ‘he needed some time’ to make his decision.

“We’ve made overtures, about four or five times. C.K. Akonnor tried, he wasn’t successful, Milovan tried and he wasn’t successful,” he said on Citi TV.

According to him, the current Black Stars coach, Otto Addo, also tried to recruit the young defender before the playoffs against Nigeria but was unsuccessful.

“Otto tried and he [Salisu] still thinks he needs time,” Mr Twum claimed.
