The Ghana Premier League surges into matchday 28 this weekend with tension tightening at both ends of the table, as the title race sharpens into focus and the battle for survival grows increasingly unforgiving.

With just seven matches left in the 2025/26 campaign, every point now carries consequence — and for giants Accra Hearts of Oak and Asante Kotoko, the margin for error has all but vanished.

The first open sale of tickets for the 2026 World Cup showed Fifa is charging up to $10,990 (£8,333) to be at the final.

Ghana Football Association (GFA) President, Kurt Simeon-Okraku, has lifted the lid on the decisive call to sack Black Stars head coach, Otto Addo, revealing that a damning review of recent performances, amid growing internal concern over the team’s direction, forced the FA to take the tough decision, despite the team's spirited performance against Germany.

The axe fell just hours after Ghana’s 2-1 defeat to Germany in a pre-World Cup friendly in Stuttgart last Monday, a result that extended the Black Stars’ miserable run to four straight defeats.

It was the face Thomas Tuchel twisted, as much as the words he spoke, that told you Phil Foden’s World Cup hopes are disappearing into a hole as deep and dark as the one he inhabits every time he plays for England.

False nine? False 10? It’s all a false economy with the 25-year-old, because the cost to the team is simply too high. What a shame that is, for talent is not the issue here.

Tuchel wishes it was different. He likes Foden. He wants him to be good. The problem, for England, is that he very rarely has been.

Former Manchester United star Anthony Martial has been banished by his club Monterrey after throwing a touchline tantrum in Mexico, according to reports.

Martial, who chalked up over 300 appearances during his nine years at Old Trafford, was released by Man United when his contract came to an end in the summer of 2024.
