Don’t Abstain From Your Partners For Too Long – Mohammed Gargo Advises Young Players
Former Ghanaian international, Mohammed Gargo has intimated the relevance of s*x for players to enhance the longevity of their career
“It takes every normal professional club six weeks to camp players and maybe when you return home for break the league might start again the next two weeks.
How can you stay away from s*x for six weeks whiles in camp plus that two weeks at home? It will be like you will not have s*x for a year and that one too is not good. Staying away from it for a long time I don’t think you are a human being because it won’t make you flexible.
Gargo, however, cautioned players to be with one partner instead of changing girlfriends regularly. “It isn’t normal for footballers to abstain from s*x for a long period.
Gargo recounted how his advice to former Black Stars captain, Stephen Appiah paid off when he first met the latter who had just signed for a club in Italy as a young footballer.
“I remember when Stephen Appiah was coming to Udinese, the first thing I told him is that he should marry his then-girlfriend after a year so that we can send the lady an invitation to Italy immediately. That’s what we did.
“Saying you are not married, as a professional footballer can’t be possible because that’s the only thing that can also damage your career.
“The reason is that changing the ladies is not good but having one partner is okay.
“When God created man, if there’s a continues off some time your wife or a girlfriend you will not feel to do it again the next day any cause you have to give yourself some time but if you don’t have one partner you will always push yourself to have an affair with comment girls.
“The more you do it, the more you weak the body because the sp**rms we always release the ladies come out from our joints.
“You will weak yourself when you change the girls but when you have your own partner you cannot do it continuously for a week.
You have to give yourself a space small.“It helps the body than not doing it all. Also, you will not faction well if you stay away from it for a long time.” Via GSP1

Harry Maguire accepts Isaac Adongo’s apologies
Harry Maguire, a Manchester United defender, has accepted Hon. Isaac Adongo’s apologies for dragging him through the dirt.
The Ghanaian politician previously rated the former Leicester City captain as the worst player recruited by the Red Devils.
Adongo was discussing the budget when he likened Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia’s economic management to Maguire’s on-field performances.
Mr Adongo, however, apologised to Maguire in Parliament on Tuesday, saying the Manchester United defender now performed better for his club than Dr Bawumia, whom he said had repeatedly supervised the country’s economic incompetence and had subsequently gone to the (IMF) for a bailout.
“I was very quick to compare my big brother Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia to Harry Maguire. Mr. Speaker, I now apologize to Harry Maguire…Today Maguire has turned the corner; he is a transformational footballer. Maguire is now scoring goals for Manchester United.”
“Mr Speaker, Harry Maguire is now a key player for Manchester United. As for our Maguire, he is now roaming at the IMF with a cup in hand,” he stated.
Following the apology, Maguire stated on social media, “MP Issac Adongo apology accepted.” “Hope to see you at Old Trafford soon.”
Meanwhile, Everton will play Manchester United in the Premier League on Sunday at Goodison Park.

Argentina’s World Cup-winning coach, Lionel Scaloni, has hinted that he may resign
Argentina’s World Cup-winning coach, Lionel Scaloni, has indicated that he is considering stepping down after five years in charge.
Scaloni made the stunning statement following Argentina’s 1-0 World Cup qualifying win against Brazil on Tuesday in Rio de Janeiro.
Before winning the World Cup in Qatar last year, the 45-year-old guided Argentina to the Copa America in 2021.
“Argentina needs a coach who has all the energy possible and who is well,” said Scaloni.
“I need to stop the ball and start thinking, I have a lot of things to think about during this time.
“It’s not goodbye or anything, but I need to think because the bar is very high and it’s complicated to keep going and it’s complicated to keep winning.
“These guys are making it difficult, so I need to think about it for a while. I will talk to the FA president and the players afterwards.”
Messi on fan-police clashes: “There could have been a tragedy.”
After a brief stint in command of Argentina’s under-20 team, Scaloni took over as manager in August 2018.
Argentina’s 2021 Copa America victory was their first major championship in 28 years, and it qualified them for the Finalissima against European champions Italy in June 2022, which they won 3-0 at Wembley.
Later that year, they won their third World Cup in Qatar, and first since 1986.
“We are sure and hope that Scaloni will continue,” said Argentina and Tottenham defender Cristian Romero.
“Let’s see now he will have time to think, he didn’t say anything in the dressing room about it. We will try to convince him.”
Argentina’s victory against Brazil on Tuesday was their first-ever away win over their rivals in World Cup qualification, and it took them two points clear at the top of the table.
The game at Rio’s Maracana stadium was delayed for 30 minutes due to a scuffle during the national anthems.

2026WCQ: Chris Hughton under pressure after Black Stars defeat in Comoros
Chris Hughton’s Black Stars suffered their first competitive loss as head coach, falling 1-0 to Comoros in the 2026 World Cup Qualifiers.
Myziane Maolida’s first-half goal was enough to give the hosts their second straight victory over the Black Stars.
Ghana is now in fourth position, three points behind early group leaders Comoros, who have won both of their initial qualification games.
Following a tense, late win against Madagascar at the Baba Yara Stadium in Kumasi last Friday, there was some hope that the Black Stars may capitalise on Mali’s slip-up against the Central African Republic to grab the group lead.
Ghana could have grabbed an early lead in Tuesday’s encounter when Inaki Williams set up Antoine Semenyo for a goal, but the Bournemouth striker hit the crossbar.
