Asante Kotoko have emerged as one of the clubs monitoring the situation of Bechem United midfielder Kofi Tompuo, with the Porcupine Warriors believed to be interested in securing the services of the talented attacking midfielder ahead of the new Ghana Premier League season.
The Kumasi giants are among two Premier League clubs that have made enquiries about the availability of the midfielder, whose performances for the Hunters have attracted significant attention across the domestic football scene.
Bechem United, however, are not prepared to part ways with their prized asset cheaply and have placed a valuation of $200,000 on Tompuo’s services.
The Hunters are understood to be firm on their asking price and will only consider a transfer if an interested club is willing to meet their valuation. The club believes the midfielder’s importance to their plans and his growing reputation justify the fee placed on him.
Tompuo has become one of Bechem United’s standout performers, earning recognition for his creativity, attacking awareness and ability to influence matches from midfield.
His consistent displays in the Ghana Premier League have made him an attractive option for clubs searching for a player capable of providing goals, assists and dynamism in the final third.
For Asante Kotoko, adding an attacking midfielder remains one of the club’s priorities as they continue efforts to strengthen their squad ahead of the upcoming campaign. The Porcupine Warriors are keen to assemble a competitive team capable of challenging for domestic honours, and Tompuo’s profile fits the club’s recruitment strategy.
However, negotiations could prove challenging, with Bechem United determined not to lose the midfielder below their valuation.
The situation has also opened the door for a potential transfer battle, as more clubs could join the race if Tompuo continues to attract interest. While talks remain at an early stage, the midfielder’s future is expected to become one of the key transfer stories in the Ghana Premier League in the coming weeks.
Should Kotoko decide to push ahead with their interest, they will have to weigh the financial commitment against the midfielder’s potential value and long-term contribution.
For now, Bechem United remain in a strong negotiating position as they prepare for the new season, with the club insisting that only a suitable offer will convince them to allow one of their most influential players to leave.
