Football in the country has been suspended since the “Number 12” documentary, which implicated over 77 Ghanaian football officials and referees, was premiered.
"The Normalization Committee has created a new competition structure, which will involve all sixteen (16) Premier League and all forty eight (48) Division One League clubs in the country," the president of the committee, Kofi Amoah, outlined in a statement.
"The new competition, which will keep all the clubs active during the GFA normalization process, as well as produce Ghana’s representatives for the next CAF Champions League and Confederations Cup respectively, is scheduled to start on January 26, 2019 and end on April 21, 2019," he added.
The competition will soon be launched and the full details of the format will be announced, the statement further said.
In a related development, the Normalization Committee is also finalizing arrangements for the resumption of the women’s and regional competitions.
