Justice Blay talks about his contract renewal at Kotoko

Asante Kotoko midfielder Justice Blay has expressed his willingness to extend his contract with the club as the new Ghana Premier League season approaches.

Although his current contract runs until 2025, Blay is eager to continue his journey with the Porcupine Warriors and is open to signing a new deal.

“I am happy at Kotoko, so I will definitely renew my contract when the authorities want me to stay,” Blay stated during the club’s open day with the press.

Last season, Blay showcased his versatility by transitioning into a defensive role, despite being known for his midfield capabilities. This adjustment was part of the team’s efforts to overcome various challenges and experiment with different player roles.

Asante Kotoko is gearing up for the upcoming season with a series of friendly matches, including a game against Medeama SC on Friday, August 16, 2024, to inaugurate the new T and A Stadium. Following this, the team will travel to Washington, D.C., for an international friendly against DC United.

The new Ghana Premier League season is set to kick off in the first week of September, with Kotoko’s opening match against Karela United. Having previously dealt with injuries, Blay is hopeful for a season free of fitness issues and is determined to make a significant impact on the team’s success.
