After England’s frustrating 0-0 draw with Ghana, Ghanaian spiritualist Nana Kwaku Bonsam claimed he was ending the curse he said he had placed on Harry Kane. Bonsam had previously said he was working to stop the England striker from scoring and help Ghana win, insisting, “I know exactly what I need to do to stop him, prevent him from scoring and make us win.”
He stressed that he did not want to injure Kane, saying, “I am not trying to cause him serious injury, God forbid. I do not wish him that. All I want is to stop him from playing well against my country.” He added, “That is my job and I will do it.”
Now that the spell has supposedly succeeded, Bonsam says he is freeing Kane. “I am the most powerful spiritualist in the world. I am now going to release Harry Kane so that he can score in England’s next match,” he said, according to the post accompanying the clip.
The article notes that Kane arrived in strong form, with 36 Bundesliga goals this season and two goals in England’s opening match against Croatia, but he was held scoreless against Ghana. The match took place on Tuesday and ended in a goalless draw.
