Veteran defender Godfred Saka has debunked rumours that he has been sacked by Accra Great Olympics.

The former Aduana Stars defender says he is still a player of the club despite reports that the Accra based club have sacked 13 players including him.

Saka has struggled with injuries and fitness since joining the club and reveals that management of the club have decided to meet him after Coronavirus pandemic.

"My only challenges as a footballer are the injuries (long layoffs)," he told Sikka Sports.

"I'm still a player for Accra Great Olympics, there's nothing to justify the rumours and the Management also agreed to meet me after the COVI19," he added.

The 33-year old won the Ghana Premier League with Aduana Stars and has enormous experience in the local league.

He was also a member of the Black Stars B team at the Championship of AAfrican Nations (CHAN) in 2014, where Ghana finished as runners up.
