CAF CL 2026/27: GoldStars CEO calls for adequate preparation ahead of Medeama clash against TP Mazembe
The Tarkwa-based side are hoping to return to the group phase of the continental tournament once again after their performance in the 2023/24 season.
Kwasi Adu, CEO of Bibiani Gold Stars, has warned Medeama SC to be thoroughly prepared for their upcoming CAF Champions League preliminary stage match against TP Mazembe. The Tarkwa-based team aims to regain their place in the group phase of the tournament following their strong performance in the 2023/24 season. The preliminary stage match between the two teams is set to take place on September 5, with TP Mazembe, a five-time winner of the competition, presenting a significant challenge.
Ahead of the game, Adu has emphasized the importance of adequate preparation for Medeama SC. "Playing in Africa is a different element altogether. Ghanaian clubs have recently failed to compete in the Champions League; recently, it was Medeama themselves who did well and Dreams (in the Confederation Cup)," he noted. Adu believes that if Medeama SC manages their players well, plans their travel meticulously, and motivates their team effectively, they have a chance to defeat TP Mazembe. The second leg of the match is scheduled to be played in Lubumbashi one week after September 5.
