President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Kurt Okraku, has announced that a new broadcast partner for the Ghana Premier League will be unveiled soon, following the official end of the association’s deal with Chinese broadcaster StarTimes.
The GFA terminated its agreement with StarTimes after the 2023/24 football season, citing an outstanding debt of \$950,000 owed by the broadcaster. The decision leaves the Ghana Premier League and FA Cup currently without an official broadcast partner.
Despite the void, Mr. Okraku remains optimistic about the league’s potential to attract media interest.
“Our Premier League is interesting enough to attract TV partners, and we will announce a new partner soon,” he said in an interview with GhOne TV.
He also confirmed the financial issues behind the split: “We have ended our partnership with StarTimes. They owe GFA \$950,000.”
In the interim, several local television stations — including Adom TV, Net2 TV, Metro TV, Original TV, and Globe TV — have stepped in to broadcast matches from the Ghana Premier League and the MTN FA Cup.
The GFA is expected to make an official announcement in the coming weeks as talks with potential partners progress.President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Kurt Okraku, has announced that a new broadcast partner for the Ghana Premier League will be unveiled soon, following the official end of the association’s deal with Chinese broadcaster StarTimes.
