Former Black Stars midfielder, Sulley Ali Muntari has finally apologized to a former management committee member, Moses Armah Parker.
During the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, Muntari was reported to have slapped the Medeama SC owner due to a misunderstanding.
However, the former AC Milan and Inter Milan ace has since regretted the assault and he is looking forward to meeting Mr. Parker to apologize to him personally.
"I don’t disrespect elders so it will take a lot of things for me to react unfortunately, he was sitting in front of me and things got really bad. Immediately it happened, and I felt really bad,” he told Dan Kwaku Yeboah TV.
"I wasn’t thinking just about him but his daughter, his family, his wife, and all those things. It’s not right for someone to disrespect their father. I’ve looking for him to apologize to him for my behavior at that time but I have not seen him yet.
"I will use this opportunity to apologize to him. I disgraced him and made people ridicule him. It was not intentional to do something like that. Whenever I see him, I will find a way to apologize to him directly. He is an elder and I’ve been looking for him for a long time. I’ve no bad feelings about him. It was not him but the situation.
“I never had the chance to talk to him but I don’t think I had problems with him during the World cup. It was a pile of a lot of things that led to me bursting out. I’m someone who doesn’t talk and when I work, I work really hard."
Muntari who would not want to blame anyone hinted that the players were frustrated with the failure of the FA and government to fulfill the promises they made to the players.
According to him, the players would have been satisfied if the authorities were candid with them instead of playing hide-and-seek with them.
“It’s like you keep on stabbing someone and not let the persons bleed. We sacrificed a lot and this is what we do for a living.
"I’m not saying you shouldn’t get paid but tell us that I’m not giving it to you today, I will give it to you next two days. Next two days, you give it to me but if I come and you say next three days, people are human," he added.
Muntari was a key figure for the Black Stars after playing in the 2006 and 2010 World Cups in Germany and South Africa respectively and has not been part of the team after he was sacked from camp during the World Cup in Rio.
