Premier League returns on Wednesday

Accra, Oct. 27, GNA 96 The One Touch Premier League will resume on Wednesday, November 1, after a brief suspension following a court injunction initiated by one Emmanuel Otu Kwei, which placed an interlocutory injunction on the league last Friday.

Otu Kwei's action was to compel the Ghana Football Association (GFA) to clarify sections of the rules and regulations which deals with player transfers and registration.

A statement issued from the secretariat of the Ghana Football Association (GFA) copied to the GNA Sports, said the resumption of the League was due to a successful meeting held between the association and the plaintiff, after which the latter agreed to withdraw the case from the court.

The statement has therefore advised the various Clubs and stakeholders to take note of the latest events in order to honour the eighth Week League matches.

Leading the pack for the weekend action are two local derbies at the Konongo 91Waterloo' Park and the Tema Stadium. At the Konongo 91Waterloo' park, Kumasi Asante Kotoko will play host to their city rivals, King Faisal, whilst Accra Hearts of Oak and Great Olympics will also renew their rivalries at the Tema Stadium. Badly bruised Berekum Arsenals who suffered a 5-2 defeat at the hands of Ashgold will be at their favourite 91Golden City' Park to play Tema Youth, with in-form Obuasi Ashgold playing as guests to Gamba All Blacks at the Swedru Stadium.

Kpando Heart of Lions will welcome Real Sportive at the Kpando Stadium while Tano Bofoakwa play host to Real Tamale United (RTU) at the Sunyani Coronation park. Gomoa Fetteh Feyenoord will be the guest of troubled Power FC, with Liberty Professionals hosting Sekondi Hasaacas at the Karl Reindorf Park at Dansoman.
