Contrary to claims that players are not meritoriously selected into the Black Stars, Lorient striker Majeed Waris insists any player in top form can always earn a call up into the national team.

To Majeed, he was invited when he had hit top form in Sweden and believes the same criteria is used in selecting players for the Ghana national team.

“I was in top form in Sweden and won the goal king. That is how I got my call up. So I always believe that if you are on top of your form, you will get the chance at any time,” Waris told Metro TV.

Many have argued for the inclusion of certain players in the team insisting their call up is not based of their current performance but the former Right To Dream Academy player disagrees.

The recent call up of Athletico Madrid’s Thomas Teye Partey confirms Majeed Waris’ assertion.

The former Tema Youth midfielder, Partey, earned his first call up following his stupendous performance for his side in the UEFA Champions League.
