Rangers FC to adopt new ground for 2025/26 NPFL season

Rangers International Football Club is expected to adopt Awka City Stadium as their temporary home ground for the 2025/26 Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) season. 

This follows the ongoing enovation of their original home ground, Nnamdi Azikiwe Stadium in Enugu, which will be upgraded to host the 2025 National Sports Festival.

The team had previously played at Awka City Stadium during the 2021/2022 season after leaving FC Ifeanyi Ubah Stadium in Nnewi due to poor pitch conditions. 

Meanwhile, the League Management Company (LMC) has inspected the Awka City Stadium to ensure it meets NPFL standards, ahead of the 2025/26 season which will begin on August 22. 

After finishing 10th in the 2024/25 season, Rangers are gearing up for a stronger campaign with their management and players currently in camp preparing for the new season.
