Ghana's Wakaso survives car crash on his way to face Sierra Leone

Deportivo Alaves midfielder Wakaso Mubarak says he is fine and ‘very well’ after his involvement in a car accident on Sunday morning.

The Ghana international was driving on the motorway to the Loiu airport to travel to Ghana for next week’s 2019 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Sierra Leone.

The 28-year-old was named in coach Appiah’s list for Ghana’s doubleheader against Sierra Leone in Kumasi Accra and Freetown.

“The incident occurred this morning on a stretch of the AP-68 motorway when the player was heading to the Loiu airport to travel to Ghana and join the national team.”

“Wakaso has resumed his way to the airport normally minutes later, clubs statement.

Wakaso later posted on his Twitter page: ”Estoy muy bien gracias a DIOS ” which translates ‘I very well thank God.”
