According to the club’s President, Moses Armah, Medeama Sporting Club will want to build a name for themselves as they take on the challenge of the CAF Champions League.
Following a 4-3 aggregate win over Guinean side Horoya, the Tarkwa-based team became the first Ghanaian club to qualify for the continental club championship since 2012.
Despite losing 2-1 in Conakry, the Ghana Premier League champions advanced to the next round with a 3-1 win in the opening leg at the Cape Coast Stadium.
“We don’t want to be mere participants in this competition hence our call for government and corporate Ghana to come to our aid,” he said to the media on Monday.
“Our experience in participating in the CAF club competitions has taught us that you need not less than $150,000 to play in a game. For example, our two games before qualification cost us $300,000.
“We plead that the government and corporate Ghana to come to our aid as we plan to take Africa by storm.”
