Kotoko and Hearts to kick off their 2022/23 Africa campaign in Cape Coast

The Confederation of African Football (CAF) have pre-approved the Cape Coast Sports Stadium as the venue for the Asante Kotoko and Hearts Of Oak for the 2022/23 CAF inter-club competitions.

Kotoko and Hearts will represent Ghana in the 2022/23 Caf Champions League and Confederation Cup respectively.

According to sources, Kotoko’s Baba Yara Sports Stadium and Hearts’ Accra Sports Stadium were not considered as both are not fit to host Caf competitions.

However, both clubs have the chance to follow a process or some systematic measures to get their respective stadiums approved by Caf.

Asante Kotoko lock horns with RC Kadiogo of Burkina Faso in the first round of the 2022/23 CAF Champions League preliminary stage while Hearts of Oak will face either AS Douanes (Burkina Faso) or ASR Bamako (Mali) in the second preliminary round of the Confederation Cup.
