Asante Kotoko’s Head of Sporting Affairs, Kwesi Appiah, has emphasized the significance of winning the Ghana Premier League (GPL) this season as a way to honor the club’s life patron, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II.
Speaking on Akoma 87.9 FM, Appiah expressed confidence in Kotoko’s ability to claim the league title and secure qualification for continental football next season.
“I believe the coach understands this and will do everything possible to ensure that we qualify for Africa next season,” Appiah remarked.
The former Black Stars coach lauded the team’s depth and acknowledged the significant investments made by Otumfuo, stating that winning the league would be a fitting tribute to the Ashanti King.
“Looking at the players we have now and the investment the King is making, I believe it would be an honor to win the league and qualify for Africa next season to make him happy,” he said.
Appiah also commended the team’s recent form and expressed optimism about their title chances. “So far, we are playing very well, and with God’s help, I feel that if we continue fighting, we will automatically win the GPL title.”
Kotoko currently sit sixth on the league table with 28 points, just two points behind league leaders Kpando Heart of Lions, as they aim to restore their dominance in Ghanaian football.
