Asante Kotoko are poised to bid farewell to eleven players in anticipation of the upcoming season, as reported by local media outlets.
The Porcupine Warriors encountered a challenging season previously, finishing in fourth place on the Ghana Premier League table.
As the new season approaches, Kotoko is diligently taking measures to bolster the team’s strength, aiming to leave a significant mark in both the Ghanaian top-flight and the FA Cup competition.
With the dissolution of the board and management, the Kumasi-based club is presently under the guidance of an Interim Management Committee (IMC), led by Nana Apinkra Akwasi Awua, James Kwesi Appiah, Dr Prosper Narteh Ogum (the new head coach), and Emmanuel Newton Dasoberi (administrative manager), all appointed by Kotoko’s owner and life patron, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II.
According to reports from Kumasi-based Oyerepa FM, the IMC has officially communicated to eleven players that their services will no longer be required as the new season approaches.
This decision to part ways with these players is seen as a strategic move by the club to rebuild and prepare for the forthcoming campaign.
The list of players expected to depart the club includes Abdul Rafiu Yakubu, Maxwell Agyemang, Andrews Kwadwo Appau, Mohammed Alhassan, Solomon Sarfo Taylor, and Samuel Boateng.
Additional players who will be making their exit are Ernest Osei Opoku, Evans Adomako, Clinton Opoku, Charles Owusu, and Dickson Afoakwa.
