Osei Palmer vs Ghana FA: Normalisation Committee boss Amoah feels vindicated by CAS ruling

Fifa and Caf's 2018-19 Ghana Football Normalisation Committee (NC) chairman Kofi Amoah believes the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) acted appropriately in declaring the Ghana Football Association (GFA) in a legal battle with Tema Youth president Wilfred Kwaku Osei 'Palmer' on Tuesday.

The global tribunal dismissed an Osei Palmer appeal to nullify the FA's presidential election conducted under the supervision of the now defunct NC last October, the club chief having sought redress for a supposed unfair disqualification from the contest.

After facing the Elections Vetting Committee, the Tema Youth chief's candidacy was rejected for breaching regulations following the transfer of a player of his now second-tier club.
