The recent 3-2 triumph over arch-rivals Accra Hearts of Oak at the Baba Yara Stadium signifies more than a mere scoreboard victory for Asante Kotoko, as expressed by Nana Apinkra Akwasi Awua, the Interim Management Committee (IMC) chairman.
In a post-match statement, Nana Awua emphasized that the win is indicative of the team’s newfound resilience. Looking ahead to the 2023/24 Ghana Premier League season, he hinted at a significant shift in approach upon the team’s return from a European tour.
“Asante Kotoko is undoubtedly winning the Ghana Premier League this year and in 2024. After we return from our European tour, we will be back stronger than ever with a new exposure, style, and mindset,” shared Nana Apinkra Akwasi Awua on Akoma FM.
The chairman’s optimism reflects the team’s turnaround from a challenging start, hinting at a strategic evolution in mindset and playing style as they face upcoming challenges. With a mix of experienced and younger players, Asante Kotoko aims for a stronger performance.
“We are currently assembling a team, and since were starting from scratch with a mix of experienced and younger players things were not going to go well,” he added.
The Porcupine Warriors are set to face Accra Great Olympics in their next league game.
