Premier League won't start on Dec 18 - Eddie Doku

Ghana Football Association Emergency Committee member Nii Eddie Doku has revealed that the Premier League will not start on 18 December.

Last month, the Premier League Board announced the Ghana top-flight would start in the second week of December.

But there are huge doubts surroundings the kick off date and Doku, who's chairman of the Greater Accra Region FA, has now let the cat out of the bag.

"I can tell you for sure that the Ghana Premier League cannot start on the 18th December, 2016" he told Kumasi-based Adehye FM.

"Why? Because as part of the Star Times deal, we will have to re-institute the Gala and play the Super Cup before the league.

"As we speak, the 2016/2017 season has not kicked off yet so the Premier League Board has to suggest a new date for the commencement of the new season."
