According the Guardian, the scandal which threatened to disrupt Ghana's 2014 World Cup will be made into a movie.

Ghana players threatened to go on strike if their bonuses were not payed. This promoted the Ghanaian government to fly $3m in cash to Brazil.

The story attracted the attention of US writer Darryl Wharton-Rigby who has been contracted to pen the original script.

“But it’s really about the journey of the guy who actually is entrusted to deliver the money and what happens if he doesn’t get it there in time.

“I actually want the guy who’s the hero of the story to be from Ghana. I think there should be a hero who is African telling the story." he told the BBC.
