The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has approved a special match to be played in honour of former President John Agyekum Kufuor.
The match, known as the Kufuor Cup, will take place on Sunday, February 18, 2024, at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium.
The Kufuor Cup is being organised by the John Agyekum Kufuor Foundation as part of activities marking the former President’s 85th birthday anniversary.
The foundation requested permission from the GFA to host the match, which will feature Asante Kotoko and Nsoatreman FC.
The GFA has approved the request and confirmed that the Kufuor Cup will take place at 3 pm on February 18.
As a result of the Kufuor Cup, the MTN FA Cup Round of 16 games involving Asante Kotoko and Nsoatreman FC have been rescheduled.
Originally, Kotoko were set to travel to Tamale to play Karela United, while Nsoatreman FC were to host Berekum Chelsea on Sunday, February 18.
However, the new schedule sees Karela United hosting Kotoko at the Aliu Mahama Sports Stadium on Tuesday, February 13, while Nsoatreman FC will host Berekum Chelsea at the Nana Konamansa Park on Wednesday, February 14.
