    Hearts of Oak’s Communications Manager, Kwame Opare Addo, has opened up about how the Ghana Football Association (GFA) denied Hearts of Oak’s bid to secure TV rights for their Ghana Premier League (GPL) games.

    The GPL faced a gap in live broadcasting after StarTimes suspended its coverage at the start of the 2024/25 season. This prompted Hearts of Oak to try and secure TV rights to telecast their home matches.

    However, they were denied access. In an interview with Happy FM, Addo revealed how all their attempts were made futile by the association.

    “When we were informed that TV rights for the league were unavailable, we made an effort to broadcast at least the home matches on the Hearts of Oak app or our social media platforms. This would have allowed us to generate some income, even if we had to share a percentage. However, we were told no,” he said.

    He further disclosed that support from other GPL clubs could have propelled their push to secure the TV rights.

    “Kotoko also attempted to acquire the rights but was denied. If other clubs had joined us, we could have taken a united stand and negotiated better terms. We were willing to share benefits with the FA, but unfortunately, it didn’t work out,” he added.

    The GPL is set to resume on Friday, March 7, 2025, after a brief break following the death of Francis Frimpong, alias ‘Pooley.’
