Thomas Partey nektet innreise til Canada – mister Ghanas første VM-kamp
Det melder The Athletic fredag, med henvisning til en uttalelse fra Fifa. Bakgrunnen for visumnekten er voldtektstiltaler mot midtbanespilleren.
Den tidligere Arsenal-spilleren ble i fjor sommer tiltalt i Storbritannia for fem tilfeller av voldtekt og ett tilfelle av seksuelt overgrep. Senere har det kommet ytterligere to voldtektstiltaler. Partey bedyrer sin uskyld.
– Fifa kan bekrefte at spilleren Thomas Partey ikke kan reise med Ghanas lag til Canada for den første kampen mot Panama onsdag 17. juni, ettersom hans visumsøknad er avslått av canadiske myndigheter, står det i en uttalelse til The Athletic.
– Fifa er ikke involvert i vertslandenes immigrasjonsprosesser, inkludert behandling av visumsøknader, står det videre.
På canadiske myndigheters nettsted står det at den som har begått eller er dømt for en forbrytelse kan bli nektet adgang til landet. Partey er tiltalt, men han er ikke dømt.
Rettssaken skulle egentlig starte i november, men mye tyder på at den blir utsatt til neste år.

Alonso se atasca en la fiesta de Norris y los Mercedes
L os peores presagios se han confirmado como guion de cara al momento decisivo del Gran Premio de Barcelona-Catalunya en el siempre exigente y vibrante, con todo vendido en sus gradas, trazado de Montmeló. Es un circuito de visita al dentista y examen de los monoplazas; y las sorpresas no existen en la Fórmula 1. Ni por arriba, con los teóricos favoritos (McLaren y Mercedes, fundamentalmente) por encima de todos. Ni por abajo, una zona a la que pertenece el Aston Martin de Fernando Alonso y de la que Carlos Sainz quiere salir.
