Black Stars and LA Galaxy winger, Joseph Paintsil
The Black Stars and LA Galaxy winger, Joseph Paintsil has expressed his aspiration to pursue a calling as a prophet after retiring from his football career.
Speaking on GHOne TV with Monica Bukari, the talented winger shared his aspiration to become a prophet, revealing his deep passion for worshipping God, a practice he began at a very young age.
“I just want to be a prophet when God calls me, I want to preach the gospel at the end of my career, if I’m being called because I’m not going to call myself. I really want to do that at the end of my career if God steps in”.
Paintsil has been a member of the Black Stars squad through difficult periods, including back-to-back group-stage eliminations at the Africa Cup of Nations in 2021 and 2023.
Since joining the first team, he has earned 15 national caps and provided two assists.
