The 2019/20 Ghana Premier League will kickoff on Saturday December 28, 2019 instead the initially proposed date of  December 21.

The new date was arrived at following a consensus meeting between the Ghana Football Association and club owners on Monday at the Mplaza Hotel in Accra.

The two parties reached an agreement for a new date for the commencement of the 2019/20 Ghanaian top-flight league after the meeting.

It was earlier proposed that the new Ghana Football season comprising of the Ghana Premier League, National Women's League and  Division One League will begin on December 21.

But most of the club owners in the country could not agree with the initial date due to its closeness to the festive season.

Official statement from the Ghana FA will be issue in the coming hours.
