Justice Blay pleads with Kotoko fans to help raise GH₵20k for his permanent move from Medeama

Asante Kotoko is keen on snapping up Medeama SC midfielder Justice Blay in this transfer window but the Tarkwa-based club have placed GH₵ 70,000 on the player.

The Kumasi-based club have made their intentions clear to the Yellow and Mauves for the midfielder and are ready to pay GH₵ 50,000 but Medeama are not ready to slash a dime from their valuation.

Speaking in an interview with Kumasi-based Fox FM, the player says it’s his dream return to the Baba Yara Stadium where he carved a nitch for himself has made a solemn plea to supporters of Asante Kotoko to help him realize his dream move of rejoining the Porcupines by raising the remaining GH₵ 20,000 for his transfer to happen.

“I heard Medeama are demanding for GH₵ 70,000 which Kotoko are also ready to pay GH₵ 50,000 and that has stalled my move to Kumasi so if ‘our’ supporters can help me raise the GH₵ 20,000 to add up to what Kotoko has offered so that I can move to Kumasi by Monday, I will be happy,” Blay said.

The 29-year-old has a contract that keeps him at Medeama until January 2021 but has been left out of Medeama’s team for their preseason.

Blay before his injury was in a terrific form in the 2020-21 season for Medeama, featuring 16 times, netting three goals in the process before picking up the injury against Legon Cities in Tarkwa which kept him out of the rest of the just-ended season.
