Asante Kotoko opt for Accra Sports Stadium for CAF Champions League games

Published on: 25 September 2020

Ghanaian giants Asante Kotoko have made the Accra Sports Stadium their first choice for home games in the CAF Champions League due to the renovations on-going at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium. 

The Porcupine Warriors are also considering the use of the Tamale Sports Stadium following their huge fan base in the Northern Region.

According to the Special Aide to Chief Executive Officer Nana Yaw Amponsah, David Obeng Nyarko, the club is considering the two options but at the moment the Accra Sports Stadium looks the best option.

''First Option is Accra Sports Stadium because of the renovation works and Tamale Sports Stadium as the second option because Kotoko is large,'' David Obeng told Oyerepa FM.

The Kumasi based club confirmed their participation in the CAF Champions League early this month after the FA requested their confirmation.

Kotoko will be representing Ghana in Africa's elite competition following the cancellation of the 2019/20 Ghana Premier League.

David Obeng revealed the club is looking forward to signing good players for the competition as they aim to do better in the upcoming season.

"We have decided to participate in CAF Champions League that means we have to bring in new players and make way for those the technical team have advised should leave," he said.
