Ghana international Gideon Mensah is not interested in a move to a bigger club because of the forthcoming 2022 FIFA World Cup. Mensah, who spent last season on loan at demoted French Ligue 1 team Bordeaux, has returned to his parent club, Red Bull Salzburg.
It is unknown whether the Black Stars left-back will continue at the Austrian club ahead of next season or not.
In an interview, the former WAFA star declared his ambition to participate in the World Cup. However, he has decided not to join a club that will derail his chances of making Ghana's squad for the mundial.
"Regarding the World Cup, I don’t think I am very keen on going to a bigger club because I can go to a bigger club and will not have more games, which means my call up will be a bit difficult." "The World Cup is near, I guess we have five or six months until the tournament and after, there is a transfer window again, so it doesn’t matter, it depends on what I am going to do at the World Cup and what is going to happen after the tournament," he stated.

A former star player for Chelsea says that Ghana kept the Nigerian national team from qualifying for the World Cup.
The former captain of the Nigerian national team, the Super Eagles, has provided an explanation for why Nigeria failed to qualify for the World Cup and was replaced by Ghana. While there, Mikel went back to Nigeria for a charitable event, and while there, he gave an interview to Nigerian journalist Femi Solaja. The interview ended up being published in the Nigerian newspaper Thisday. According to him, the lack of a genuine team captain was the primary contributor to their defeat at the hands of Ghana, who scored an away goal in the match. The fact that Ghana tied both of their games, one in Kumasi at 0-0 and the other in Abuja at 1-1, was sufficient to earn them a spot in the World Cup.
"It had been a very long time since we had been disqualified for a competition, so the news that we did not make the cut was really upsetting." We need one player to take the field so that the others can follow in his or her footsteps. When there are four or five people giving instructions on the pitch, you only need one person to act as the leader. It is not necessary to have five leaders. It is not a unit in any sense. "
