Coronavirus: Hearts of Oak chief Moore laments financial impact of league suspension

Hearts of Oak chief executive officer (CEO) Fredrick Moore reveals the suspension of the domestic league due to the coronavirus pandemic is taking the club through a heavy financial distress.

Covid-19 is posing a major threat to lives, forcing the world into a standstill. Many major sports competitions around the globe, including the Ghana Premier League, have ground to a halt, a situation greatly affecting the finances of many establishments.

"[The effect is] very dramatically and very significantly [huge] in terms of the financial impact on the club," Moore told the BBC.
