Club Statement – Bullets plan to withdraw from CAF Champions League

Share

Nyasa Big Bullets FC is planning to withdraw from its intention to participate in 2020/21 Confederation of African Football (CAF) Champions League.

The reason necessitating our plan to withdraw from the continental competition is delayed approval by authorities for early training preparations following the suspension of sports activities due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

The CAF Champions League 2020/21 campaign is scheduled to kick off in November.

Our letter, which was submitted to the Football Association of Malawi (FAM) on 28th September 2020, requesting permission for early training has not been replied to date, despite our persistent follow ups through the Association.

Hoping that we would be given the permission to start early preparations, we embarked on steps to prepare our team by testing for Covid-19 as well as conducting fitness test with our players, besides processing for Club Licensing for the CAF registration.

Considering how competitive CAF Champions League is, coupled with our desire to compete and not to participate for the sake of it, we feel that failure to start early preparations put us at a disadvantage to represent our country as serious contenders, hence our decision to consider withdrawing from this year’s campaign.
