Reports reaching JiveGH.com indicates that the 2019/20 Ghana Premier League season is set to be sponsored by Ghana Gas and Ghana National Petroleum Commission (GNPC) through an intervention by government to ensure the league starts in December.
The deal by the two sponsors according to reports, is to ensure the swift commencement of the local league in the country.
With the image of Ghana football battered by last year’s exposé by leading investigative journalist Anas Amereyaw Anas, government is the only body willing to invest into Ghana football as corporate Ghana are reluctant to pump money into the sports immediately.
Government sponsored the Normalisation Committee Special Competitions and are ready to sponsor the new Ghana league season.
Ghana FA President Kurt Okraku in his first meeting with the president, Nana Akufo-Addo, called for support for his administration which government obliged.
Registration for players for the new season has officially been opened.
