Liberty Professionals have been ordered to play their Ghana Premier League matches at a different venue as the Club Licensing Board have revoked the license of the Carl Reindorf Park in Dansoman.

The decision is due to three snakes found at the park during Sunday’s match between Liberty and Hearts of Oak. The Phobains won the match 2-1.

”The Club Licensing Board has revoked the License of Liberty Professionals FC for the use of the Carl Reindorf, Dansoman with immediate effect,” A statement on Ghana FA website read.

“This decision was taken at a meeting of the Committee held on Monday, January 20 following the Club’s inability to rectify the infrastructural challenges based on which they were granted a provisional license with conditions, failing which the license shall be withdrawn.

“After its inspection on Monday, January 20, the Board observed that Liberty Professionals failed to effect the required changes before the deadline given earlier.

“Liberty Professionals are therefore advised to contact the Competitions Department of the GFA on the choice of an alternative venue from the list of approved Premier League match venues.

“The Club is also advised to reapply for a license to use the Carl Reindorf Park should they correct the defects.”

The likely venue Liberty will choose to play their home matches is Accra Sports Stadium.
