According to information coming from Ghana, the much-awaited pre-season game between Nigeria Professional Football League champions Rivers United and their Ghanaian foes Asante Kotoko has been postponed indefinitely, BSNsports.com.ng reports.

The two teams a few weeks back agreed to have a pre-season match in Istanbul, Turkey later this month ahead of the new season.

Asante was expected to jet out of Ghana on Sunday night but was unable to secure a travel visa for the entire team which led to the pronouncement from the management of the team.

"Our planned trip to Turkey for the second phase of our pre-season which was originally scheduled for the 14th of August, 2022 has been postponed due to visa processing delays," the statement read.

Asante who is without a coach presently will represent Ghana in the CAF champions league just like Rivers United.
