Ghana Football Association chief Kwesi Nyantakyi says they have reached advanced talks with two companies over sponsoring the Premier League.

Indigenous Ghanaian bank Capital Bank suspended their deal with the top-flight as headline sponsors before the start of the season.

This season has been one of the best in recent years with the standard of play and crowds improving.

There is pressure on the FA to bring on board a new sponsor and Nyantakyi says they are working on it.

"We are in talks with two companies to sponsor the ongoing Ghana Premier League,” Nyantakyi told Happy FM.

"Talks have reached an advanced stage we are very confident that something good will come up. For now I am not in a position to mention names as nothing is concrete yet."
