AshantiGold defender Yussif Mubarik has expressed his disappointment after being left out of the Black Stars B squad to face Burkina Faso.
The defender was amongst the 16 payers dropped from the squad by coach Maxwell Konadu ahead of CHAN qualifier against Burkina Faso on Sunday.
Speaking to Kumasi based OTEC FM, he said he was surprised by the news.
“I was off for the whole night (Saturday’s night) and wasn’t in the mood when I heard my name has been dropped from the Black Stars ‘B’ squad.
“It was a surprise to me, I knew I will be part of the team because being part of the national team boosts your confidence as a player. Since there is a big tournament ahead of us, I will work harder to be part of the CHAN 2020 squad in January”, he added”.
The Black Stars B will host the Stallions of Burkina Faso at the Baba Yara Stadium in the first leg of 2020 CHAN qualifier.
