Majority Leader Mahama Ayariga has announced that Sports Minister Kofi Adams will soon begin talks with SuperSport about broadcasting the Ghana Premier League.

Right now, the league has no main sponsor or official TV partner after the Ghana Football Association (GFA) ended its contract with Chinese broadcaster StarTimes.

The contract between StarTimes and the Ghana Football Association (GFA) ended on June 30, 2024. The four-year agreement, which was worth $5.25 million, was originally signed in 20202. The termination of the contract was due to outstanding monetary obligations, with StarTimes owing the GFA close to a million dollars. Despite the successful collaboration, both parties amicably agreed to part ways

Speaking in Parliament on Wednesday, February 19, Ayariga said the Minister plans to discuss possible coverage deals with the South African-based network.

“The Minister of Sports and Recreation has revealed to me that he is looking to negotiate with SuperSport and others to begin covering our local leagues,” Mr. Ayariga said.

There are reports that StarTimes is in talks to regain broadcasting rights for the league, but the GFA has not officially confirmed this.
