Bechem United net UT Bank bumper deal

Bechem United are set to announce a bumper stadium naming rights deal with Ghanaian-owned UT Bank, MTNFootball.com can exclusively report.

The deal was brokered by Finasport Limited, the sports management consulting firm who has been contracted as the club’s marketers.

The financial details have not been disclosed but MTNFootball.com understands it is a mouthwatering deal.

This means the Nana Gyeabour II Park in Bechem will now be named UT Bank Park and the financial institution will help improve facilities there.

It will be a historic deal by a Ghanaian club and the first of its kind in the First Capital Plus Premier League.

Ghanaian clubs in the top-flight have been re-positioning themselves to attract sponsors ever since Africa’s biggest Pay TV channel SuperSport signed as the official broadcast partner.

Early this month, indigenous bank First Capital Plus signed a US$ 10m deal as headline sponsor of the league.
