Ghana Fa To Support Chelsea�s African Campaign With Cash
The Ghana FA will be making financial contributions to aid Berekum Chelsea in their maiden Caf Champions League campaign.
The Berekum-based club hosts Cameroon�s Cotton Sport in the first leg of the ultimate qualifier to the group stage on Sunday haven expertly accounted for Raja Casablanca in the previous round.
And as Ghana�s sole representative, many believe all support especially from the GFA should be given to Chelsea in order to redeem Ghana�s slots in African club competition with their progress.
This support according to Ghana FA boss Kwasi Nyantakyi is given last season�s Premier League champions and would be soon taken one step further by offering financial aid.
�The GFA has been supporting Chelsea in diverse ways, some ways I cannot reveal to the public,� he told Kumasi-based Kessben FM.
�I was personally in Berekum when they played Raja Casablanca and I believe it served some sort of motivation.
�I will be there again this weekend for the Cotton Sport game to offer support but the GFA will soon be making financial contributions towards their campaign in Africa.
�This financial support I believe will be made in time before their second leg game.�
Chelsea are looking to be the first Ghanaian side to make the group stage of the Champions League since Hearts of Oak�s barren run in 2006.
