It is important that we stop referring to Ghana Premier League players as local players, this is according to former Hearts of Oak attacking midfielder, Charles Taylor.
Speaking to Angel TV in an interview, the retired Ghanaian player argued that calling a player a local player affects them negatively.
“The term ‘local player’ should be abolished. It has negative effect on the players,” Charles Taylor stressed.
The exciting former Asante Kotoko player added, “They’re all professional players. In Ghana people think local rice is inferior to foreign. That’s our mindset. Afriyie Barnie is a professional player not a local player.”
