Dr Ernest Koranteng visits Fatawu Issahaku ahead of All Star Festival 2026

Veteran Ghanaian sports journalist, Dr Ernest Koranteng has visited Black Stars winger, Abdul Fatawu Issahaku in the United Kingdom ahead of the 2026 All Star Festival.

Koranteng led a small delegation of football administrators to meet the winger at the King Power Stadium shortly after Issahaku helped Leicester City secure a 2–1 victory over Bristol City, scoring the decisive goal of the match.

The visit is part of a broader engagement initiative by the CEO of BAC Group to connect with Ghanaian players abroad, as well as other African stars in Europe, ahead of the off-season football tournament, the All Star Festival.

Dr. Koranteng and his team will also visit King Power Stadium on Saturday, March 14, 2026, to watch Leicester City’s league fixture against Queens Park Rangers, where Issahaku is expected to feature alongside Ghana captain Jordan Ayew.

He will also travel to other parts of Europe including Italy, France, Turkey, and Spain where many African players are based.

The All Star Festival, an off-season football event that brings football stars together to interact with the community, was first held in Accra in 2022.

It later moved to the Brong Ahafo Region in 2023 and Tamale in 2024 before returning to Accra in 2025.
