Bechem United CEO , Nana Kwasi Darlyn has revealed how excited he was after hearing the decision of the Ghana Football Association headed by Kurt E.S Okraku to take off part of burdens on Football administrators to give out monetary package from the FIFA Covid-19 Fund to clubs in the country.
It was reported yesterday that after a marathon meeting by the Executive Council of the GFA , the earmarked $ 500,000 million from FIFA to relief the financial burden of its member associations would include a package for GPL and Division one(DOL)clubs.
Premier clubs are expected to receive $15,000 from the FIFA fund of which a first tranche of $10,000 would be disbursed immediately whilst division one clubs would receive $5,000 out of which $7000 would be distributed quickly.
$2000 has been allocated to GHALCA.
Speaking on Anopa Busuo Sports on BA TV in Sunyani, Mr Dalyn welcomed the FA’s decision to mitigate the plight of clubs with the money adding that he had heard rumours some of the clubs had already received their share.
“We are glad the FA heard the clubs and have taken the needed action to mitigate our struggles.
“We were not making any unreasonable demands , in Senegal for instance the FA even included Division two clubs in their financial package.
“I have heard rumours that some clubs have received their share and that is welcome news , we are waiting for the CAF money too”.
