Ghana Football Association (GFA) Medical Committee head, Dr Adam Baba beleives the 2020/21 football season cannot start in October as announced by President Akufo-Addo.
The Ghana Football Association have been given the clearance to start the new season in October the President during his address of the nation on Sunday.
Domestic football came to a halt in March following the outbreak of the novel coronavirus but was truncated by the Executive Committee in June.
But Dr Baba believes October is too early as the clubs need more time to prepare, having been out of action for a long time.
“It is impossible to start the league in October from my point of view. If the government said go ahead, you can start but we cannot start in October,” Baba told Kumasi FM.
”There’s no team that can tell you that it has started preparation. We need a minimum of four to six weeks for the clubs, they need to purchase new players and start pre-season training which cannot be done in three weeks.
“Practically, we give ourselves four to six weeks from the time we’ve been asked to start so the earliest we might start in November.”
The President also said that 25 per cent fans will be allowed into stadiums when the season commences.
