Good news coming from the camp of Asante Kotoko indicates that, the life patron of the club, his royal majesty Otumfuo Osei tutu II has released funds to the club to settle players’ arrears.
It could be recalled that, players of the Reds were summoned to Manhyia few days ago to have a private meeting with the Asantehene as Opemsuo wanted to know about the current state of the club regarding the welfare of the players.
This was to ensure that all players have their welfare issues well taken care of, and to ensure smoothness in the running of their duties.
The inquiry was on a peaceful note taking into consideration the rise in the team’s performance in the domestic league.
However, Asantehene has released an amount of GHC710,000 cedis which is around US123,000 dollars to settle players’ unpaid signing on-on-fees, Otumfuo’s Ankobeahene and Kotoko board member Baffour Kwame Kusi II confirmed to Kumasi –based Light FM sports.
The king of Asante is poised to furnish the team with quality players in order for the team to return to its glory days.
Meanwhile, the management of the club led Nana Yaw Amponsah are yet to meet and start paying players debt.
