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.
