Rashid Sumaila, other Ghanaian players to return home as Kuwait authorities put evacuation plans in place

All Ghanaian players playing their football in Kuwait will soon return home with authorities in the country putting in place a plan to evacuate foreign players.

The Asian country is one of the countries in the world which have been affected by the Coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic.

As of Tuesday morning, there had been 16,764 confirmed cases of the disease with as many as 4,681 recoveries as well as a death toll of 121.

Due to the situation in the country, the football season in Kuwait has been suspended as a precautionary measure against the further spread of the disease.

With no certainty as to when the war against the Covid-19 disease will be won, football authorities and clubs in the country have decided to evacuate all foreign players to their native land.

In line with that Ghanaian internationals Rashid Sumaila [Qadsia SC], Nicholas Coffie, and Vincent Atinga [Al-Shabab] will soon return home.
