In 2020, StarTimes secured the exclusive broadcasting rights for the Ghana Premier League and other leagues in a four-year agreement worth $5.25 million. But over the weekend, live matches returned to free-to-air channels following?the GFA's agreement with local broadcasting firm, AFA Sports. Mr. Fred Acheampong, in an interview with the media, said: 'StarTimes owes GFA close to $1 million dollars. The GFA had to find money from different avenues to settle the clubs with the 'StarTimes' money that the clubs were supposed to receive. This is the reason we couldn't continue with StarTimes'. With the resumption of the new season, the AFA coverage of the first week of the Ghana Premier League has been met with mixed reactions, especially concerning the quality of coverage.
