Published on: 19 March 2020

Managing Director of Hearts of Oak, Frederick Moore has disclosed that his outfit is focused and waiting for the resumption of the 2019/20 Ghana Premier League amid reports of points deduction for fielding an unqualified player.

Hearts are reportedly set to lose six points after they fielded an unqualified player in Emmanuel Nettey in their league clash against Elmina Sharks.

Nettey is said to have accumulated three yellow cards prior to the side’s 1-1 draw where he was in action for the club.

If found guilty, the Phobians will further lose three (3) points from its accumulated 21 points from previous matches in accordance with Article 33(5)(a) of the Premier League Regulations.

"I haven’t heard that[points deduction] formerly Emmanuel Nettey is playing well so people will try and say all sort of things and do all sort of things.

"We are focused and waiting for the league to resume so that we can get as many points possible because neither the management nor the board and the Chairman is happy with where we are, so we need to do anything we can to move forward," he said on Oyerepa FM.

Meanwhile, the Ghana Football Association following the directives given by the President of the Republic has suspended all its competitions with immediate effect until further notice.

The FA says it will continue to engage the relevant institutions on this matter and update its members and all stakeholders of any changes.
