Black Stars defender, John Pantsil, has claimed that some people were paid to ruin his reputation, following his recent troubles in Accra.
The right-back was arrested by Ghanaian Police, after he allegedly assaulted his wife after a fight in their home and beat up a neighbour who tried to intervene. He has however denied such stories, claiming some people are out to run him down.
“We had arguments but I did not stab her,” Pantsil told Tel-Aviv based Channel 10. “To be honest with you, some people were trying to (I mean) disgrace me and paying people to do unnecessary things, stupid things on air to destroy my name but I have no idea and I just wanna leave everything to God. That’s it.”
The Police made a mistake to issue that statement and they are coming out to apologize for it.
“Everything is fine, you can see I’m very very very well. Nothing like that; everything you’ve been hearing on the internet, radio or newspaper is bull****.
“It’s never true so please send a message across to people in Israel that they know who John Paintsil is.
“I’m not like that type and they should cheer up and keep their heads focused but I’m well, I’m fit and happy so nothing is going wrong on my side.”
The Ghana international, who has been asked to look for a new club by Hapoel tel Aviv, is reported to have collapsed in his house, as his domestic issues got on its head.
