He emphasised the importance of the league in nurturing talent and providing a platform for players to showcase their skills.
Having played in the Ghana Premier League and Division One, Paintsil spoke fondly of his time in the domestic leagues and praised the talents of fellow players.
The endorsement from Paintsil is a significant boost for the Ghana Premier League, which has faced challenges in attracting attention and support in recent years.
