Prosper Harrison Addo, general secretary of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), has disclosed intentions to upgrade the infrastructure by constructing a cutting-edge surface for both national and international competitions.
This is in response to complaints from several football supporters in the nation about the subpar fields utilized, among other things, in the Ghana Premier League and lower-tier games.
However, he said that the project's cost is the main holding up point. He contends that obtaining resources, such as land, in the major cities becomes a hindrance to carrying out their ambitions.
"The blueprints are ready, and once we get the necessary funding, we will carry them out. We are constructing several fields there, similar to Prampram, he told Asempa FM.
Money is not often the only hurdle, but the land. Finding the space has been expensive in Greater Accra so we keep managing the fields that are left.”
“For instance, McDan is overused by football teams because of the unavailability of alternatives. so you can watch football throughout the day at the Park. And reducing the number of teams in the competitions to lessen the burden on the field will also be another problem.
He also added that money received from FIFA can’t be solely channeled into building stadium because other problems exist which equally needs monetary attention.
