President of the Ghana Football Association, Kurt E. S Okraku has denied claims that he currently owns a consortium that manages coaches and players including the new Black Stars Head Coach, C.K Akonnor.
Addressing journalists at the GFA’s first ever Meet the Press session in Accra on Monday, Okraku disclosed he no longer had shares in the Sports marketing company, Proton Sports services.
He further stressed that he had no management contract with Akonnor or any other coach or footballer in the country.
“People are asking if I manage Charles Akonnor and the answer is no and I do not manage any coach or players in Ghana. I have had relationships with loads of people in the industry.
I have known Akonnor for some time now because he worked at Dreams FC and he also worked with AshGold, Kotoko and Hearts of Oak.
When I won the GFA elections, I announced that I would not be continuing with my work at Dreams FC and that alone was a big statement.
It was meant to show that I wanted to give undiluted support to Ghana. I owned Proton Sports and I was a shareholder of that company. As we speak now, I do not hold any shares in that company anymore. “
