Akwasi AduBibiani Gold Stars chief executive Akwasi Adu says none of the 18 Ghana Premier League clubs have received the promised GHC1m funding, six matches into the 2026/27 season.The financial support was announced at the Ghana Football Association (GFA) Congress at the Ghanaman Soccer Centre of Excellence before the start of the campaign, with each top-flight club expected to benefit.However, the delay in disbursing the funds has raised questions about when the clubs will receive the money.Speaking to Asempa FM, Adu said the GFA leadership was expected to meet club representatives to discuss the payment.”No Premier League club has received the promised GHC1m, but I know the Ghana Football Association leadership, together with the clubs, will be meeting soon to discuss when the money will be paid to the clubs,” he said.Adu also urged clubs to take greater responsibility for their finances instead of relying solely on the GFA for financial support.”It’s an association, and we, the clubs, have decided to join, so we must have money for our season and not wait on the GFA for money, but we are confident the money will be paid,” he added.The delay comes as clubs continue their campaigns in the 2026/27 Ghana Premier League, with the promised funding expected to provide financial relief during the season.Meanwhile, Gold Stars will seek to improve their fortunes when they travel to face newly promoted Debibi United on Sunday, 18 October.The Matchday Seven fixture is scheduled to kick off at 15:00 GMT, with the Miners hoping to get their league campaign back on track.
