Ghana is reportedly considering neighbouring country, Togo as the venue for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations Qualifiers against Sudan next month.
The Ghana Football Association is exploring options for the new home venue for the Black Stars following CAF's withdrawal of the license of stadiums in the country from hosting international football matches.
The Baba Yara Sports Stadium, along with other key venues such as Accra Sports Stadium and Cape Coast Stadium, has been shut down for maintenance following CAF’s directive.
With the match just a month away and no stadium currently available, the Ghana Football Association (GFA) is urgently considering Togo’s national stadium, which meets CAF's requirements.
There are also discussions about possibly hosting the game in Ivory Coast, a country with strong ties to Ghana, especially following the support for the Black Stars during the 2024 AFCON earlier this year.
Ghana hopes to resolve the stadium issues soon, but the possibility of playing the crucial home match outside the country remains a serious consideration.
The upcoming match against Sudan is crucial given Ghana have just one point after two games in the qualifiers. The Black Stars lost to Angola in Kumasi and failed to beat Niger leaving them in a desperate position.
Coach Otto Addo and his charges have to secure back-to-back wins against Sudan to lift themselves from the third spot and into the qualification spot.
