Delegates at the Extraordinary Congress of the Ghana Football Association (GFA) have accepted a proposal by the Normalisation Committee to increase the number of clubs who participate in the Ghana Premier League to 18 from 16.
For over two decades, 16 clubs have contested for honours in Ghana’s topflight but this will change heading into the 2019/20 season after 64 of an expected 120 delegates voted in support of the decision.
The beneficiaries of the vote are Division One League clubs Accra Great Olympics and King Faisal Babies. Both clubs have longstanding cases against the GFA in Ghana’s courts.
