Kotoko "May" Not Register Akuffo

Interim Asante Kotoko coach Michael Osei has told management of the club he wants a midfielder and a striker, but the club ‘may not’ register former skipper Michael Akuffo who returned to the club to nurse an injury.

Akuffo, 30, season long loan contract with Lebanese side Al-Ansar SC will expire next month and he is expected to be fully part of the Porcupine Warriors if it is not renewed.

However, management is reluctant to register him though they are not negotiating a contract renewal with Al-Ansar SC.

Officials of the club say his recurring injuries is their major concern, though sources say otherwise.

It is believed the management are unhappy with his ‘off the pitch attitude’, and will overlook his fitness problems if he promise to be of ‘good behavior’.

And Michael Osei, who was tasked to take over from David Duncan after six Ghana Premier League (GPL) matches this season, have asked for two players to beef up the team.

He has the services of Michael Akuffo at his disposal to the midfield, but the management of the club are reluctant to register him for the second round the of the season.
