Asante Kotoko has made the decision to withdraw from the upcoming GHALCA top four tournament, scheduled to kick off early next month.
The champions Medeama SC, Aduana Stars, Bechem United, and Asante Kotoko were all set to compete in this year’s top four, having finished first through fourth in the 2022–23 Ghana Premier League.
However, recent events surrounding the Porcupine Warriors, such as the breakup of the board and other pressing issues, have compelled them to prioritize resolving these urgent matters in preparation for the upcoming season.
The GHALCA Top 4 tournament is scheduled to run from 6th August 2023 to 13th August 2023, with the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi serving as the host venue.
