Board Chairman of National Sports Authority (NSA), Hon. Kwadwo Baah Agyemang, has cautioned the Ghana FA not to rush to resume football activities.

Football has been suspended indefinitely following the outbreak of the novel coronavirus in the country.

The future of football in the country still remains uncertain, many have called on the FA to declare the 2019/20 football season null and void.

However, following the return of the German Bundesliga last two weeks, the country’s football governing body has come under pressure to resume football.

Speaking on the Ultimate Sports Show on Asempa FM, Kwadwo Baah Agyemang, has cautioned the Ghana FA not to make hasty decisions in returning football in the country, adding that the country does not have what it takes to imitate from the Germans.
