Medeama SC head coach Ibrahim Tanko has set his sights on winning the Ghana Premier League next season after what he described as an underwhelming 2024/25 campaign.
The Tarkwa-based side finished eighth on the league table with 50 points, missing out on their top-four target.
Reflecting on the season, Tanko acknowledged the team fell short of expectations but revealed that preparations are already underway for a stronger title challenge in 2025/26.
“If we’d finished in the top four, I would have deserved it based on our home and away performance, but we fell short. So we are going to prepare for next season, not for the top four but for the league title itself,” he told the club’s website.
Tanko was particularly disappointed by Medeama’s only home defeat of the season, calling it a wake-up call that the squad needs adjustments.
“Massive changes? Not really, but we have to reassess the squad. Players who are surplus to requirements will be offloaded or put out on loan to create space for a few additional signings.”
The former Accra Lions boss stressed the importance of reinforcing key areas of the team, especially in defense and attack.
“We have good players, but adding more quality will make us a stronger team. So I will bring in a centre-back and a striker. The rest will come from the talented young players we already have in the squad.”
The new Ghana Premier League season is scheduled to kick off on September 26, 2025.
