I've never taken bribe in my coaching career - Sellas Tetteh

Head coach of Ghana U-20 Male Soccer Team Sellas Tetteh has unreservedly stated that he has never accepted a sweetener throughout his coaching career contrary to popular perceptions.

Tetteh who has acted as an assistant coach of the Black Stars was the man at the helm when Ghana famously won all competitions they entered including the World Cup at the U-20 level in 2009.

There have always been tittle-tattles of indigenous coaches taking inducements before selecting players into the various national teams but the former Rwanda head coach says his hands are clean.

"Whatever you do people will talk about it and me I believe in my God", he told Metro TV.

"I can say this for a fact that I have never ever taken bribe from any player and anybody but God knows",

"You see, that is why always God vindicates me when such things comes up against me, and I always excel in adversity".

Before the 2009 FIFA Youth World Cup, winger Ishmael Yartey has threw Ghana's preparations into chaos by claiming Sellas Tetteh picked his final 21-man squad based solely on who had the most money to pay a bribe.

Yartey accused the coach of taking monies from the players before putting them in his final team.
