Mr. Wilson Arthur, Chairman of the MTN FA Cup Committee, has confirmed that the final of the 2023/24 league cup will be held at the newly-built University of Ghana Stadium.

The announcement comes as the competition reaches its semi-final stage.

The Legon Stadium, boasting a capacity of 10,000 seats, was recently completed and was one of the venues for the 13th edition of the African Games held two months ago.

While initially established by the government of Ghana, there are speculations that the University of Ghana authorities will now oversee the management of the stadium, separate from the National Sports Authority.

In a recent interview on Akoma FM in Kumasi, Mr. Wilson Arthur, also the bank-roller of division one side Skyy FC, confirmed the decision to choose the Legon Stadium for the FA Cup final, pending official approval.

"After further discussions, we changed our original plan to hold the semi-finals and finals at the newly constructed Tarkwa TNA Stadium and Legon Stadium, respectively. However, the TNA stadium was not ready.

"We considered Samarboi as an alternative, but after consultations, we decided that going to the Volta region would be more beneficial. Hence, we reverted to our backup plan, which was Sogakope.

"However, the Legon Stadium has been selected to host this year's finals. We intend to choose that location for the competition's semifinal and final rounds in the future, subject to exco approval."

The MTN FA Cup semi-finals will feature Legon Cities FC against Nsoatreman FC and reigning champions Dreams FC facing Bofoakwa Tano FC on May 11 and 12, respectively, at the Red Bull Arena in Sogakope.
