Nsoatreman FC has officially withdrawn from the ongoing 2024/25 Ghana Premier League, citing concerns over the “security and safety” of their players.
The decision was announced on Friday, March 14, 2025. The former FA Cup champions were nearly attacked ahead of their Matchday 23 clash against FC Samartex at DUN’s Park on Monday, further escalating fears over their safety.
Their withdrawal follows an earlier ban from hosting home games at the Nana Kronmansah Park after a tragic incident on February 2, when an Asante Kotoko fan was stabbed to death during their Matchday 19 fixture. According to Article 14, Clause 5 of the GFA General Regulations:
“The GFA shall expunge from the record any points and/or goals build-up in respect of matches played with a club that withdraws from the competition after the competition has started.
“This means that all points and goals accumulated by clubs in matches against Nsoatreman will be removed from the league standings, potentially reshaping the competition as teams lose previously earned points.
