Board chairmen of two of Ghana's most glamourous and biggest clubs Asante Kotoko and Hearts of Oak arrived in the Cameroonian capital of Yoaunde at the behest of the Confederation of African Football (CAF) on Saturday.

Togbe Afede and Dr. Kwame Kyei represented their various clubs at CAF meeting about the proposed African Super League which was first mooted by FIFA boss Gianni Infantino.

The two Ghanaian officials were among some 30 presidents, representing clubs from record African champions Al Ahly of Egypt to Zimbabwe's Dynamos, met in Douala, Cameroon, on Saturday to learn about the project.

Many African FA presidents also attended, as did Gianni Infantino, president of world governing body Fifa.

"We will implement in partnership with Fifa," said Confederation of African Football president Patrice Motsepe.

"Fifa brings a wealth of experience in terms of running the best competition in the world, [the World Cup]."

"We want the African Super League to be world-class and to compete against the best in the world in terms of quality of football, resources, infrastructure, pitches, referees, stadiums and ticketing. A lot of good progress has been made" as reported by the BBC.

Plans are still embryonic and far from confirmed, but initial proposals - presented by Caf following guidance from Fifa - suggest 24 teams will contest three groups of eight teams ahead of a knockout stage starting with the Round of 16.

These teams will be taken from the best-ranked African clubs over the past few years, with groups to be played on a regional basis (North, Central/West, South/East).

Togbe Afede and Dr. Kwame Kyei will also have the opportunity to watch the finals of the AFCON 2021 tournament when Senegal face Egypt tonight.
