It was earlier reported in the local media that Medeama have written to the country's interim football governing to rescind its decision of no Ghanaian club participating in CAF inter-club competitions in 2019.

"We are not ready to represent Ghana in any CAF competition disregard reports circulating in the media," Mr. Parker told Tarkwa-based Medeamaa FM

"There is no iota of truth in those stories. We don't have the money to play Africa for now, let's all help the Normalization Committee.

"We suffered a lot in our last appearance in the CAF Confederation Cup because there was no support from anywhere [not even the government at that time]. It is simple Medeama is not ready to play in Africa"

He concluded: "We don't have the adequate funds to play in Africa.

Medeama reached the group stages of the CAF Confederation Cup in their last appearance which was in 2015.
