Medeama SC have left Accra for Cairo ahead of the game against Al Ahly in the CAF Champions League.
The Mauve and Yellow left the country nicely suited up in their all-violet and white shoes.
Medeama, currently 8th in the Ghana Premier League, travelled with a robust 21-man squad.
Among the notable players making the trip are Black Stars trio Jonathan Sowah, Fatawu Hamidu, and Nurudeen Abdulai. These players were part of the squad for Ghana’s qualifying matches against Madagascar and Comoros.
Accompanying the squad are 11 backroom staff members, including a video analyst, highlighting Medeama’s commitment to thorough preparation.
Despite their inconsistent performance in domestic competitions, Medeama are determined to make a mark in their Champions League debut. Their first group stage match on Saturday, November 25, will be held at the formidable Al-Salam Stadium in Cairo, where they’ll face the record-holding Al Ahly.
Al Ahly SC are the defending champions and record winners of the CAF Champions League while this is the first time Medeama will be playing in the group stage of the competition.
Medeama’s debut in the Champions League adds an element of unpredictability to the encounter, making it an intriguing clash between the seasoned Egyptian side and the ambitious Ghanaian club.
