Asante Kotoko midfielder Emmanuel Antwi has emphasized the high level of competition within the team, noting that no player is guaranteed a spot in the starting eleven.
The midfielder highlighted the intense effort from all players to impress the coaching staff and secure regular playing time.”We don’t have any fixed first eleven here,” Antwi said. “Everyone is working hard to become the coach’s favorite.
“He stressed the importance of giving maximum effort in training, adding that players who don’t push themselves will find it difficult to earn a place on the field.”If you’re a player here and you don’t want to give your best, then it will be very difficult for you to get playing time or make it to the first eleven,” he explained. “Basically, everyone is trying hard to be in the first eleven.
“Antwi’s remarks reflect the competitive spirit at Asante Kotoko, as the team looks to improve on their recent performances and challenge for titles in the ongoing season.
