16 clubs will host their home matches at their chosen venues for the 2019/20 Ghana Premier League after the Club Licensing Board approved their venues for their home matches.
The approvals comes just five days before the start of the season after the inspection report of the CLB was released on Tuesday.
While four clubs secured their approval without any problems as many as 12 clubs have last minute work to do to secure their approvals with two clubs rejected out-rightly.
Aduana Stars, Ashgold, Kotoko and King Faisal all secured their approval without any problems.
Giants Hearts of Oak and the club of GFA president Dreams FC are among those to fix their facilities indicatiing that the CLB is not bending any rules in favour of any club.
The Club Licensing Board of the Ghana Football Association has approved venues of 16 Premier League Clubs with two clubs asked to choose alternative venues for their home matches.
Wa All Stars and Ebusua Dwarfs must look for alternative venues after they facilities were rejected by the CLB.
The Club Licensing Board came to these conclusions after inspecting the venues proposed by the clubs across the country.
The mandatory basis for the rejection have been discussed with clubs. The deadline for clubs to propose alternative venues has been discussed with clubs.
The Competitions Department shall select an approved venue for the clubs to honour their home matches should the clubs fail to meet the deadline.
