Majeed Waris says he felt bad when Avram Grant left him out of the Black Stars final 23-man squad for the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations in Gabon.

The 25-year-old is currently with the Black Stars as they prepare for their double header against Mexico and the USA on June 28 and July 1.

And when asked about how he felt after he was snubbed by Avram Grant when he named his final squad for the 2017 AFCON, Waris said he was disrespected by the technical handlers of the team at the time.

“If I knew earlier that I will not make the squad, it would have been better than just taking me out without any concrete reason,” he said.

“I cancelled my holiday because they insisted I had to be at the team’s camping and then in the end, they just left me out without giving me any reason.

“I feel very disrespected. But this is life and not everyone will respect you.

Avram Grant was the coach of the senior male national football team of Ghana from 2014 to 2017.
