Accra Lions technical director Ibrahim Tanko has expressed passionate grief over the prevalent movement of Ghanaian players abroad to seek greener pastures.
The mass exodus of players in the domestic top-flight league has affected the standard of the Ghana Premier League and also the performance of Ghanaian teams in Africa.
Most players who turn out to perform well join other clubs on the continent or move to Europe for greener pastures.
In an interview, the former Ghana assistant gaffer expressed worry about the rampant departure of players from the Ghanaian top-flight.
“After every season our best players leave. “You can cite Lomotey, Diawisie Taylor, Okrah and Annor. It’s difficult to convince them to stay because we can’t pay them well” he said.
The Ghana Premier League has suffered player exodus in the just ended season following the departure of Augustine Okrah, Yaw Annor, James Akaminko and others.
