Ghanaian champions Asante Kotoko have ended their interest in Ashantigold trio over the ‘unprofessional’ conduct of the mauves.
Kotoko have been desperate to sign striker Shafiu Mumuni, midfielders Richard Dodji and James Akaminko to revamp their squad in the ongoing Caf confederation cup.
The Ghanaian title record holders have slapped in an official bid for the services of the players but have been incensed by the ‘unprofessional’ conduct of the miners.
