Canada make Thomas Partey visa decision ahead of Ghana World Cup clash
Stay up to date with notifications from The IndependentNotifications can be managed in browser preferences.AllNewsSportCultureLifestyleGhanaian midfielder Thomas Partey has been denied a Canadian visa, ruling him out of the Black Stars' World Cup opener against Panama in Toronto. The visa issues are linked to ongoing criminal proceedings in the UK, where Partey faces seven charges of rape and one count of sexual assault, to which he has pleaded not guilty. A motion by the Ghanaian government to review the decision to deny Partey entry was dismissed by a Canadian federal court. Canadian immigration officials stated that foreign nationals can be deemed inadmissible based on reasonable grounds, even without a foreign conviction. Despite the Canadian denial, Partey has been granted a US visa, allowing him to train with the team and participate in Ghana's subsequent World Cup matches held in the United States.
