We are not scared of TP Mazembe – Medeama Communications Director
Medeama SC were drawn against five- time winners of the CAF Champions League in the preliminary round with the first leg to take place at the TnA Stadium on the weekend of September 4-6, 2026.
Medeama Sporting Club's Communications Director, Benjamin Wille Graham, has firmly stated that his club is not afraid of facing DR Congo's TP Mazembe in the CAF Champions League preliminary round. Mr. Graham emphasized that the main objective remains winning the title for the first time, with reaching the group stage being the initial milestone.
He highlighted that TP Mazembe, despite being a five-time winner of the CAF Champions League, was not ranked higher than Medeama SC, which is currently ranked 54th in Africa. The first leg of the preliminary round is scheduled to take place at TnA Stadium in Ghana from the weekend of September 4-6, 2026. When asked about the perception of the draw as unlucky, Graham dismissed the notion, stating that the level of opposition would be the same regardless of the draw outcome.
If Medeama SC advances to the next stage, they will face either Tunisia's Club Africain or Mali's Djoliba AC. Currently, the Ghanaian champions are in Ivory Coast for their pre-season campaign.
