As the Ghana Premier League 2023/24 second-round action kicks off this weekend, Asante Kotoko prepares for a crucial showdown against Heart of Lions in Kpando on Sunday, February 24th, 2024.
Coach Dr. Prosper Narteh Ogum has meticulously curated a 20-man squad for the encounter, with key players set to spearhead Kotoko’s charge against Lions.
Among the notable absentees for the Kpando trip are Baba Yahaya, Georges Mfegue, Shadrack Addo, Julius Ofori Ziggy, Prince Adesa, Nana Benyin Amoah, and team captain Danlad Ibrahim. However, the inclusion of Isaac Oppong, Kalo Ouattara, Henry Ansu, Benard Somuah, and Richmond Opoku Lamptey bolsters Ogum’s squad for the Lions clash.
