Ghana Premier League champions Medeama Sporting Club have settled on the Baba Yara Stadium for their home games in the CAF Champions League.
The Tarkwa-based side booked their ticket to represent Ghana at the competition following their 4-3 aggregate win over Horoya AC in the playoff round of the qualifiers.
Following their qualification to play in the tournament for the first time, the Yellow and Mauves were expected to play their games at the yet-to-commissioned T & A Park which is still under construction.
However, the management of the club has now submitted the Baba Yara Stadium in Kumasi as the venue for their home games.

Medeama discovered their group opponents following the conduction of the draw.
They find themselves in Group D where they come up against record-holders of the competition Al Ahly in their group as well as face challenges from CR Belouizdad of Algeria and Tanzania's Young Africans.
Medeama will become the first Ghanaian side since Berekum Chelsea in 2012 to play in the Champions League.
