Transfer: "It Will Be Difficult To Keep Hold Of Our Players" - Kotoko CEO

 Kotoko’s Players Poached By Other Clubs – Opoku Nti Confirms

Kumasi Asante kotoko played their second and final game in a two legged game away in Libya after Coach Duncan divided the team into two before departing for the North African country.

 

Tagged as Kotoko team B, the new players and the infusion of experienced duo Jordan Opoku and Richard Ofori helped Kotoko win the maiden edition of GHALCA First Trust G6. The Porcupine warriors started the tournament as second favourite to regional rivals and current premier league champions, Ashgold.

 

The 23 times Ghana premier league champions surprised many after winning all the three games played and annexing the trophy with what was called ‘a depleted’ team after Coach Duncan named a strong team to depart for Libya. The zeal, desire and joy of wearing the red jersey crowned with hunger to prove a point made the ‘team B’ successful and victorious.

 

It is this success that has caused a huge scare among first team players who were sure of secured positions with Chief Executive Officer of Kotoko and former player, Opoku Nti lavishing praise on the depth of quality within the team and the performance shown by all involved.

The first team put in a revived second half performance against Al-Ettihad of Tripoli though the results went against the warriors the performance was met with huge applause from the spectators who couldn’t hide their appreciation of Kotoko’s possessive game.

 

In an interview with Kumasi based, Boss FM, Opoku Nti nicknamed Lord Zico was asked if the club will consider cashing in on any of their players. His answer was rather a fascinating one saying, “I alone can’t decide. It is true clubs have shown interest in our players.”

 

He added, “the transfer window closes soon so no deal can be made but maybe we might do business n the summer.”

 

Kotoko will return home later today after drawing in yesterdays game against the same opposition in matchday 1 in Tripoli.
