Scouts Storm Satellites Camp

Coach Sellas Tetteh

FOOTBALL AGENTS from across the globe have made the Black Satellites camping base in Turkey their preferred destination.

These scouts, especially from Europe, are frequenting the Ghana camp on a daily basis to poach players.

Despite the appalling performance of the  Satellites, football scouts still see Ghana as boasting of talented players in their camp.

A source in the Ghana camp disclosed to DAILY GUIDE SPORTS that the football agents started visiting the Ghana camp even before the tournament started.

He said several football agents, mostly from Europe, usually visited the Polat Renaissance Hotel in Istanbul the initial base of Ghana.

According to him, these agents during their visits demanded that they wanted to talk to some of the Ghana players.

The source noted that the agents usually wanted to know if the players were willing to move to a foreign club.

They also enquired if the players were already having agents who were working to secure a club for them.

He said the trend was the same after Ghana left Istanbul to Kayseri on Tuesday to play against USA.

The source said even before Ghana arrived at the Hilton Hotel at Kayseri, soccer agents had flooded the place.

Like the agents that stormed the team's hotel in Istanbul, these agents also wanted to know if they could secure clubs for most of the local-based Ghana players.
