President of the Ghana Football Association, Kurt Okraku has lauded German football great Lothar Matthäus for obtaining an ownership stake in Premier League side Accra Lions.
Accra Lions announced on Tuesday that the six-times Bundesliga and 1990 FIFA World Cup winner and co-owners Frank Acheampong and super football intermediary Oliver König have completed the necessary take over of the Abokobi-based club.
“We can see a vision unfolding. The partners Oliver König and Lothar Matthäus are winners so the club will become winners. Essentially, Ghana football will become a winner," Kurt Okraku said at the event.
“Accra Lions have an identity. They play the kind of football I want to watch. They have the right level of investment at every aspect of the club.
“The good environment we have created in Ghana football has enabled and encouraged people to invest in Ghana football.”
