Asante Kotoko SC injury news compounded with six stars sidelined

Interim manager for Asante Kotoko SC Johnson Smith will have to negotiate with limited players in the coming days as the club continues to record injury news on weekly basis.

The record Ghana Premier League champions registered 28 players for the 2021 season but has already lost six stars to either sickness, injury, or sudden exit.

Augustine Okrah left the shores of the country for pastures anew in Morocco despite getting registered for the season. The former Bechem United FC attacker marked his season debut before joining the North African side.

New arrivals, Evans Adomako, Emmanuel Keyekeh, and Patrick Asmah have all been sidelined for the last few weeks with varying degrees of injuries and sicknesses.

The woes of the club then reached their peak with Mudasiru Salifu and goalkeeper, Danlad Ibrahim also picking injuries and sickness respectively.

This season damning injuries have reduced the squad pool to just 22 players for a 34-week soccer season.

Management of the club will have to lower their internal transfer blackout so as to bring in new faces when the second registration window opens.
