Dreams FC head coach, Abdul Karim Zito, says his players deserve a long break after everything they have done this season.
Zito has managed a smaller group of players this season who have had to play in the Ghana Premier League, the CAF Confederation Cup and the MTN FA Cup.
Zito's men were knocked out of the MTN FA Cup on Sunday evening as they lost to Bofoakwa Tano at the WAFA Park after extra time.
Their defeat means they failed in their attempt to return to Africa where they went out also in the semifinal after losing to Zamalek.
Speaking at the end of the journey in the MTN FA Cup, Zito said, "I have achieved seriously because sometimes when you defend your title you must be out before [this stage]. I combine three [competitions], playing at the same time and with these same players. Now injuries have affected me seriously but that is no excuse. That is why I said we did our best."
"Where we went out in the CAF Confederation, to me, we did better. For a longer period, we had not had a small team like Dreams FC to reach that stage. You come to the FA Cup and we are out in the semifinals, it's one of those things in football.
"My boys have had enough for the year. We will do our best to maintain ourselves in the league and then we will take a long break or else we will break down."
Dreams' next match is against Bechem United on Wednesday, May 15, at 15:00 GMT. Currently, Dreams hold the 15th position in the league standings out of 18 teams, with four games yet to be played.
