Players of the Senior National team could see their winning bonus hack down to $5000. Ghanasportsonline.com understands. Ghanasportsonline.com checks reveal that the Sports Ministry has proposed a decrement in the bonus package after a meeting between the Ministry and the Ghana Football Association on Tuesday. The decision by the Ministry could possibly see the Black Stars players whom initially enjoyed a winning bonus of $10,000 per player slash down at the 2015 African Cup of Nations in Equatorial Guinea. The situation will however see each player of the Black Stars team earning up to $30,000 should the team progress to the finals of the competition.
