Thomas Partey has turned down the deputy captaincy of the Black Stars, prioritizing his contributions on the pitch over an official leadership role.
The midfielder informed Coach Otto Addo and the Ghana Football Association of his decision, choosing to support the team without a title.
Arsenal’s key player likely aims to stay focused without added pressure. In his absence, Alexander Djiku is expected to step up as deputy captain.
Despite this move, Partey remains crucial for Ghana as they prepare for World Cup qualifiers against Chad and Madagascar.
