After more than three months of lack of football activities in Ghana, there is a silver lining that the game could return anytime soon after a meeting between the Normalisation Committee and the Ghana League Clubs Association(GHALCA).

Both parties said in a joint statement that they ‘recognize the need to resume football activities in Ghana and most especially the welfare of players’.

The topflight and other domestic competitions are on suspension following the screening last June of a documentary by undercover journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas, which exposed widespread corruption in the sport.
