I know everyone wants to win but the young players can make you win, we want to see Liberia taking 20 years old players to the Nations Cup,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>In his words, it\u2019s about time also that players are allowed to play for only one county and don\u2019t move from county to county in the tournament.<\/p>\n<p>He said there is the need to make a county meet a project to develop younger players so if players are kept with one county because they will have a smooth development growth than get different orientations for coaches.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s more beneficiary to the country if we have young kids playing at such a level.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said the county me should be open to all divisions but restrict it to young age which according to him will encourage more young players to challenge in the top flight because they will not be affected by their level.<\/p>\n<p>Massaley, meanwhile, wants a change of the county meet date from December to July.<\/p>\n<p>He feels doing so will help save the teams cash because during December clubs pay their players to without them playing a game during such period.<\/p>\n<p>Another reason for his proposal for the tournament to be played in July according to Charles the academic calendar.<\/p>\n<p>The Muscat president told FrontPage Africa that for so many years clubs have suffered from the aftermath of the county meet.<\/p>\n<p>He explained that counties and the Sports ministry need to compensate clubs for the use of the players in the national event.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think the county needs to give the clubs a fee per player because is the clubs that train the players,\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are not treated we\u2019ll sometime players return from county meet with injury and is the clubs that take on that responsibility,\u201d Charles Massaley asserted.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/liberia\">Liberia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Liberia.
