Following a temporary ban from playing at home, Evans Oppong, the Communications Director of Aduana Football Club, has suggested that the team may not participate in the 2022/2023 betPawa Premier League season.
The ban was imposed after disturbing videos and images emerged on social media, allegedly showing Aduana FC fans attacking the Tamale City team bus and players outside the stadium after their Week 25 clash at the Nana Agyemang Badu Park last Sunday.
If the club's three-game home ban is confirmed, they will be unable to host upcoming matches against Great Olympics, Gold Stars, and Karela United in Dormaa. Oppong expressed his dissatisfaction with the Ghana Football Association's decision to ban the club and hinted at a possible league boycott.
He claimed that the ban is evidence that the GFA has a particular team in mind to win the league, stating in an interview with Sunyani-based Space FM, "The decision of the GFA to ban our venue temporarily is a pellucid indication that they (GFA) have a particular team in mind to win the league. The best thing Aduana would do as a result of this decision is by boycotting the GPL."
Aduana Stars are scheduled to play King Faisal at the Dr Kwame Kyei Sports Complex, but it remains uncertain whether the team will fulfill their upcoming betPawa Premier League games.
Aduana Stars are currently leading the Premier League table with 44 points with 10 matches to end the season.
