Bankroller for Alhaji Grusah has rescinded his decision not to contest in the 2019 GFA elections by moving ahead to pick his nomination form.

The experienced football administrator who has earlier announced withdrawing from the GFA Presidential race to succeed Kwesi Nyantakyi has now picked his form to vie for the Executive Council seat rather.

He joins Asante Kotoko CEO George Amoako, Hearts of Lions owner Randy Abbey, AshantiGold CEO Frederick Acheampong among others contesting for the 12 slots.

Vetting for the qualified candidates is scheduled for September 26 to October 1 with the elections slated for October 25, 2019.

GFA Presidency

Alhaji Grusah has pulled out of the race to the contest for the GFA Presidential position.

The GFA position have been vacant since former boss Kwesi Nyantakyi was banned from all football-related activities. However, owner of the Division One League club, who had declared in time past to replace Kwesi Nyantakyi has rescinded his decision.

He confirmed this in an interview on Asempa FM's Ultimate Sports Show.

''I have withdrawn from the GFA presidential race, I will no longer contest for the position.''

'My family both home and abroad spoke to me and cited different examples of how I can be of service to this country aside being the President and at the end of the day, they made sense to me so I have agreed not to contest. However, I will try and contest for a position on the Executive Council.''
