The Liberty Professionals Chronicle

A fracture rules a squad player out for 35 days
Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Liberty Professionals will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Baba Kudus was unplayable
Successful dribbles: 29. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

A falling-out at Liberty Professionals
a squad player and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.
Match19 Sep 2026
Berekum Chelsea take the points off Liberty Professionals
Beaten 2‑3, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Daniel Afful falls out with a teammate over standards
The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Edmund Paintsil in the eights
A performance of 8.10 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.
The dugout21 Sep 2026
No hiding place for Jonathan Partey
“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Jonathan Partey, and the manager let it.

The view from the dugout
“We will look at it, we will learn from it, and we go again.” The three sentences every manager keeps for a 2‑3 defeat, delivered by Bernard Asamoah to a room that had heard them before.

David Acquah stays put
“The easiest signature of my career.” David Acquah and Liberty Professionals agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.
In brief
- The dugout No place in the plan for David Asante
- The dugout Christian Djiku knocks on the manager’s door
- Looking ahead Liberty Professionals travel to Heart of Lions
