Kyeremeh: Watch out for Berekum Chelsea!

Emmanuel

Kyeremeh, President of Berekum Chelsea, insists his side have achieved nothing

yet in the African Champions’ League revealing their determination to make the

semi finals in their maiden appearance in the continental flagship club

tournament.

Chelsea

stand to make history by playing against their English namesakes in December’s

FIFA Club World Cup should they win Africa’s flagship club tournament, but

their chief is preaching caution, urging playing body and technical team to

forget about the results so far and concentrate on the remaining group games.

“What has

past is already history, we still have four matches to go and we have to win

them so we can qualify for the semi finals then we can take it from there. We

don’t have to rest on our oars, rather we need to work harder and improve on

what we have done so far,” Ghana’s version of Roman Abramovich told 90 MINUTES.

He continued:

“What is important is to qualify for the semi finals because you cannot win the

competition if you don’t get to the semi finals.”

The just

dethroned Ghana champions have taken four points from a possible six thus far

and travel to face record 6-time winners Al Ahly in Cairo this Saturday oozing

with confidence.

The

President of the club insists that Chelsea knew what they could do long before

they entered the competition.

Mr. Kyeremeh

told 90 MINUTES: “If we knew we were not ready, we wouldn’t have decided to

play in Africa. It was voluntary, no one forced us to enter the tournament.”

He added: “We

knew we have the players and the technical team capable of doing well so we

expect to do even more. It’s a platform for the boys to market themselves apart

from enhancing the image of the club.

“The attention

will be on them, the focus is on them and any player who gets any good deal, we

can’t say no if they have to move. If a good offer comes for any player, we

will just sit down and sign them away at the end of the competition.’
