He said this in a pre game presser as the fifth ranked Bilbao plays Sevilla at the Ramon Sanchez Pijuan Stadium in Seville. Sevilla is going through a poor run and ranks 16th in the 20 team Spanish league.

“Each one always wants to pull towards his side, we wanted him to be here. They-Ghana- have preparation to play for a match on the 14th. We don’t have much say”.
