President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Kurt Okraku, has revealed that a new broadcasting partner for the Ghana Premier League will be announced soon.
This comes after the GFA officially ended its agreement with Chinese broadcaster StarTimes, citing an outstanding debt of $950,000.
The decision follows the conclusion of their contract at the end of the 2023/24 football season.
With the league and the FA Cup currently without an official broadcaster, Mr. Okraku expressed confidence in the appeal of Ghana’s top-flight football, stating that it remains a marketable product capable of attracting new media partners.
“Our Premier League is interesting enough to attract TV partners, and we will announce a new partner soon,” he told GhOne TV.
Explaining the reasons behind the termination, Mr. Okraku confirmed, “We have ended our partnership with StarTimes. They owe GFA $950,000.”
In the meantime, local stations such as Adom TV, Net2 TV, Metro TV, Original TV, and Globe TV have continued to air Ghana Premier League and FA Cup matches.
