Kotoko, 4 others could play upcoming fixtures behind closed doors

Premier League giant Asante Kotoko and four other clubs could lose an opportunity to admit fans for their matches this weekend after they failed to train stewards. 

The Ghana Football Association (GFA) is expected to take a decision on the five clubs that refused to adhere to its directive after insisting that only clubs that have met all the requirements and have been given approval will be allowed to admit supporters to their home matches.

Allowing Kotoko to admits fans without trained stewards will be a massive slap on the FA and brutish insults to other clubs who have spent money in that venture.

Teams approved to admit fans for the upcoming fixtures are Hearts of Oak, Great Olympics, Legon Cities, Berekum Chelsea, Elmina Sharks, Ashantigold, WAFA, Liberty Professionals, Dreams FC, Eleven Wonders, Medeama, Karela United, and King Faisal.

Per the football governing body’s directive, Asante Kotoko, Bechem United, Aduana Stars, Ebusua Dwarfs, and Inter Allies are not allowed to admit fans after failing to train stewards.

Football matches in Ghana were played behind closed doors due to the surge in coronavirus cases in the West African country.

The Sports Ministry has officially lifted the restriction indicating clubs are to admit only 25 per cent of fans to a stadium capacity.

“The Ministry of Youth and Sports is delighted to announce that with immediate effect, approval is granted for football fans (25%) to return to the various League centres to watch both domestic and international competitions subject to observing all the national COVID-19 protocols and the GFA Matchday COVID-19 protocols”.

The Ghana FA subsequently issued a directive that clubs with stewards at their venues will be allowed to admit fans on match day.

Club stewards are to fully implement what they learnt and ensure strict adherence to the GFA Matchday Covid-19 Protocols.

If the Ghana FA goes with its directive, the Porcupine Warriors are likely to host Medeama in Obuasi on Saturday without fans at the stadium.
