Communication Director of the Ghana Football Association(GFA), Henry Asante Twum has revealed that the FA has notify the Confederation of African Football (CAF) for a two-week extension to be able to take a decision on the 2019/20 season.

Last week, the football governing body engaged the various stakeholders through a virtual meeting to decide on the future of the 2019/20 Ghana Premier League.

Most of the clubs have suggested that the 2019/20 football season be cancelled whilst others have proposed football should return when its safe to do so.

However, a firm decision is yet to be made on the future of the suspended season.

Henry Asante Twum in an interview confirmed that the GFA has given CAF a situational report on the pandemic in Ghana.

“We have sent a situational report by giving CAF enough info on what is happening in Ghana”, he told Asempa FM.

“We have notify them that we cannot take a decision without adhering to the directives from government.

“We have given CAF an update and we have requested for two weeks where by we will come up with a firm plan and decision going forward,”he added.

Ghana had up to May 5, 2020 to submit its representatives to CAF for next season.
