Bechem United will not break camp amid coronavirus concerns- CEO

Bechem United Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Nana Kwesi Darlington says the club will not break camp despite the suspension of the league due to the coronavirus outbreak.

A directive from the Government of Ghana on Monday has seen all public gathering suspended for the next four weeks due to the Covid-19 which has seen most Premier League clubs break camp.

Bechem United intends to keep players in camp and continue with their normal activities till the league resumes.

“The players are still in camp and we are yet to release them”, Nana Kwesi Darlington told Asempa FM.

He explained that as part of the clubs policy to prevent their players from getting the virus, the players will remain in camp so they do not get infected with the virus when they are released.

“What if we allow the players to go home and they get infected by the disease. So we intend to keep them here in camp”.

"Plans have been put in place for the players to be tested to ensure they are safe whilst in camp".

Bechem United lie eighth on the league log with 22 points after match day 15 of the 2019/20 Ghana Premier League.
