Nigeria Premier Football League champions Rangers International have picked the MKO Abiola Sports Arena in Abeokuta as their temporary home ground, and will begin their title defence at the venue again after previously using it for a league match earlier this year. The move is aimed at reducing travel costs and logistical issues associated with frequent changes of venues. The arena has been approved by the league authorities to host Rangers' games until a new stadium can be completed. This marks an important step in the club's preparations for their title defence.
