In an attempt to save their ailing former club from sinking into the wilderness of Ghana football, former players of New Edubiase United are planning of raising funds to support the club.
The recent public outcry of the President of the club Abdul Salam Yakubu to pull out of the ongoing Ghana Premier League has shaken the former players who want to rescue the club.
In an exclusive interview with GHANAsoccernet.com, the former captain of the ailing Premier League side Abubakar Mumuni revealed that the players are in talks towards raising some funds to help the club.
“We are talking to each other to see how we can help the club financially. We know it is difficult to run a club in Ghana without money so we want to support the club,” he said.
“That is the club that made us who we are today and we also have to look back and offer the little that we can.”
The ailing Bekwai-based club has over fifteen players playing outside the country including Ebenezer Ofori who plays for AIK in Sweden, Moro Ibrahim of Adana Demirspor in Turkey, Asiedu Attobrah of Kortrijk in Belgium and Latif Anabilah.
New Edubiase are currently at the bottom of the 16-club table after the first round of the Ghana Premier League.
