Nigeria, Aug. 19 -- Fresh from winning their historic first Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) title, Remo Stars will not be starting their title defence from their Ikenne fortress.

Instead, the Sky Blue Stars have adopted the MKO Abiola Sports Arena in Abeokuta as their temporary home ground ahead of the new season, owing to ongoing renovation works at their Remo Stars Stadium.

The club confirmed the development on Monday just days before the NPFL kicks off on Friday, 22 August.

"Due to ongoing renovations at our stadium in Ikenne, the club can confirm a temporary home ground, the MKO Abiola Sports Arena, Kuto, Abeokuta," Remo Stars announced on social media.
