It’s unfortunate that Majeed Waris couldn’t prevent Valenciennes from relegation despite his commendable efforts. The Ghanaian international, who was on loan from Spartak Moscow, managed to score 9 goals in Ligue 1 this season, showcasing his talent and contribution to the team.
However, Waris will miss Valenciennes’ final match against Toulouse as he has been released by the club ahead of the Black Stars’ preparations for the World Cup. The 22-year-old striker is returning to Ghana for personal reasons and to join his national team for the World Cup preparations, which are set to commence on Monday.
Waris’s inclusion in Kwesi Appiah’s squad for the World Cup highlights his importance to the Ghanaian national team and his potential impact on the global stage.
Despite Valenciennes’ relegation to Ligue 2, Waris’s individual performances have earned him recognition and an opportunity to represent his country on football’s biggest stage.
