Granted US visa, available to play
Partey has been granted a visa to enter the United States and will be available for Ghana's World Cup fixture against England in Boston on Tuesday, according to Rob Draper of The Guardian.
Analysis: Partey had missed Ghana's opening match against Panama in Toronto after being denied entry into Canada, with Elisha Owusu starting in his place. His availability for the England clash gives coach Carlos Queiroz back one of his most experienced midfield options as Ghana look to build on their dramatic opening victory against the Three Lions.
Loses appeal
Partey lost his appeal against visa refusal into Canada, per Martyn Ziegler of The Times.
Analysis: Partey lost his appeal and will not be allowed into Canada for the opening match against Panama. Partey will likely be granted a visa into the United States for the second match of the group stage, but he remains out for the opener. Elisha Owusu is in line for the start against Panama with Partey not allowed in the country.
