Albert Commey call for government support to help clubs pay players

Published on: 29 May 2020

Albert Yahaya Commey, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) for Techiman Eleven Wonders is appealing to the government to come to the aid of clubs with financial support.

According to the former Aduana Stars CEO, clubs are not seeking money to run their teams but they want something to assist them to pay their players in this period of the Covid-19 crisis.

“We have not said Government should give us money to run our clubs, but we need at least three months salary [from Government] for the players to keep them going for the return of the league”, Yahaya Commey told Skyy FC.

He further revealed, “The immune system of our players are going down, so we plead with Government because our players contribute to our GDP.

“Players who travel to play abroad send money home to their families to run business in Ghana.

He further shared that the actions of the government have so far attested to the fact that it is not serious about the sport in the country.
