The Normalisation Committee (NC) of the Ghana Football Association has cancelled its scheduled meeting with football clubs.
Originally
scheduled for today, the meeting was meant to discuss the start of the
2019/2020 league season.
In a statement, the NC stated that the decision
to cancel the meeting was a result of ‘discouraging response’ from the clubs.
Below is the full statement:
“The proposed meeting between representatives of
clubs and GFA-NC officials to discuss the 2019/20 league season has been
cancelled.
The meeting was to deliberate on the proposal to
synchronize Ghana’s league calendar with Europe as mooted by some club
officials.
The cancellation of the meeting originally
scheduled for Wednesday, July 17, is necessitated by discouraging response from
the invited clubs.
The GFA-NC will avail itself for future
stakeholder engagements on the above subject matter when necessary.
The GFA-NC wishes to state unequivocally that it
is determined to wrap up within the stipulated mandate as spelt out by the
Federation of International Football Association (FIFA).
The public is, therefore, urged to regard as
false any contrary information, surrounding the GFA-NC supposed intent to
further seek an extension of its mandate.”
