Medeama SC head coach Ibrahim Tanko has brushed aside claims that his team thrives only under floodlights, asserting that the timing of fixtures does not influence their performance.His comments come ahead of Medeama’s upcoming Ghana Premier League encounter against Vision FC on Friday, May 2, at 18:00 GMT.Recent speculation has suggested that the Mauve and Yellows enjoy a significant edge when playing late matches at home, particularly under floodlights.The conversation was reignited after Medeama comfortably defeated Young Apostles 3-0 in their last evening fixture, with Black Stars defender Kamaradini Mamudu netting a brace in the first half.However, Coach Tanko dismissed such narratives, stressing his side’s readiness for action at any hour.“No, I think every time that we are supposed to play, we are ready,” he said.“And if it’s three o’clock or if it is six o’clock in the night, I think the only thing is [that] we have to give our best to win if it’s six or three.”Medeama currently sit seventh on the Premier League table with 44 points.

Former Medeama SC and Nsoatreman FC head coach Yaw Preko has expressed deep concern over what he describes as a lack of spirit within the current Hearts of Oak setup.The Accra-based club is enduring a challenging 2024/25 Ghana Premier League season. With just five matches remaining, the Phobians are currently 6th on the table with 45 points — a far cry from their usual title-challenging form.Reflecting on his experience facing his former side earlier in the season at the Nana Kronmansah Park, Preko admitted he was stunned by how uninspired Hearts of Oak looked during the game."I played against Hearts of Oak while I was coaching Nsoatreman, and the flair was not there," Preko told Sporty FM."Something is missing, but I can not pinpoint what is missing. It was a difficult game, but it was also easy to play against Hearts of Oak."He added that the team appears devoid of energy and fighting spirit — a sharp contrast to the formidable aura they once carried."They look spiritless, and even when you are losing against them, you know you can rally back and beat them," he added.Hearts of Oak will be hoping to turn...

Board Chairman of Medeama SC, Dr. Tony Aubynn, has emphasised that the future of football in Ghana is deeply tied to the fortunes of the Ghana Premier League.The country's top-tier football competition has faced persistent challenges, including dwindling fan interest, lack of sponsorship, and the absence of a television broadcaster.Despite these setbacks, Dr. Aubynn maintains that the overall success of Ghanaian football depends on strengthening the domestic league.“If the league is not doing well, obviously we are not going to do well at the top, and I don’t think we should pin it on one or two persons because they run a club," he told Channel One TV.“They also have invested… so there is more to it than one person being singled out for the entire problem. I believe that we need to invest in football," he added.Under Dr. Aubynn’s leadership, Medeama SC clinched the Ghana Premier League title in the 2022/2023 season and recently relocated to the newly constructed TNA Stadium in Tarkwa, a move seen as a step forward in the club’s development.

Ghanaian defender Mohammed Umar has emerged as a transfer target for Dutch giants Feyenoord, but his Romanian club Politehnica Iași are not keen on letting him go anytime soon.The 22-year-old, who joined Iași from Ghanaian champions Medeama SC, has enjoyed a standout season in the Romanian top flight, attracting interest from several European clubs ahead of the summer window.Iasi chief Cornel sfaiţer confirmed the attention the young centre-back is receiving, but maintained the club will not rush into selling him. “I know very well that there are scouts from the Netherlands watching Umar. He’s a player with strength, speed, and discipline, and at 22, he has a bright future,” Sfaiter told Fanatik.While the club acknowledges its model involves developing and selling talent, Sfaiter says Umar remains vital to their immediate plans. “He still needs Iași, and we need him. There are discussions, but it’s not something urgent now,” he added.Umar is currently valued at €100,000 and has a contract that runs until December 2026.

When you look at the movement of our right and left backs, when in possession, they operate as midfielders, so I’m not surprised they are getting chances to score goals," he said.“I believe it’s a good thing for the team if the strikers aren’t scoring but players in other departments are scoring," Tanko added.Medeama, who now sit on the 7th on the league log with 44 points, will host Vision FC in the Matchday 30...
