Ghana midfielder Kevin-Prince Boateng has confirmed he sat out the Black Stars 2012 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Sudan last Sunday due a genuine injury.
The AC Milan enforcer was expected to make a huge home debut in Ghana colours but that had to be delayed due to a thigh muscle he sustained during a League match.
"I am now feeling better," Boateng told Milannews. "When the national team call-up arrived, I was not feeling the best, so I refused it.
Boateng is expected to be fit in time for AC Milnaââ¬â¢s Serie A clash against Chievo this weekend and the Ghanaian wantsà the team to win before they turn attention to Real Madrid in the Uefa Champions League.
