Confederation Cup CAF Champions League: Berekum Chelsea to pull out
FEB 4, 2014 LISTEN

The management of Berekum Chelsea are on the verge taking  a final decision  of pulling out  from the 2014 CAF Champions League qualifiers due to the lack of funds and inexperience crop of players in their camp as close sources disclose.

The club is currently  holding talks with sponsors to see if they can raise the needed cash for the two-legged tie against FC Atlabara of South Sudan and also contemplating on their previous quality to this time around

The US$ 20,000 received from the Ghana Football Association( GFA) can only foot the bill for their first leg clash and  the club couldn't purchase the best of players for the campaign.

The Berekum-based side will officially confirm their pulling out to the Ghana Football Association by the close of this week as they deliberate with relocated  president Emmanuel Kyeremeh who now resides in Canada.

The 2012 CAF Champions League group stage campaigners are said  to  owe players and technical team three-months salaries and has a majority of its key players injured and have been neglected due to financial constraints.

If this decision is reached the club will be  banned for three years and fined by CAF
