OFFICIAL: Elmina Sharks relegated from the Ghana Premier League

Elmina Sharks have dropped from the Ghana Premier League to the Division One League following Sunday’s 3-0 defeat against Berekum Chelsea.

The Sharks appeared to have a chance of surviving another week, as WAFA and XI Wonders were drawing.

However, goals from Emmanuel Sarpong, Henry Ainsu and Collins Ameyaw turned the game around, and Shark’s relegation to the first division was guaranteed.

Elmina Sharks were unable to maintain their Premier League status following their Championship title victory previous season, and this is the club’s first Premier League relegation.

With just three games remaining, they will have to play for pride.

Sharks, formerly Coconut Grove Sharks FC, were promoted to the top flight in 2016.
