Asante Kotoko has confirmed the signing of 29-year-old left-back Kwasi Asante on a one-and-a-half-year contract following the successful completion of his medical.
The experience full-back brings guile and versatility to the Porcupine Warriors, having played for Hafia Club of Guinea, Simba FC in Tanzania, and Mbabane Swallows in Eswatini.
Known for his adaptability, he can operate not only as a left-back but also as a center-back or even as a left winger, offering valuable options to the technical team. Head Coach Dr. Prosper Narteh Ogum welcomed Asante’s arrival, saying:
“Everyone knows we’ve been playing with just one recognizable left-back in Patrick Asiedu since October last year, and it was essential to strengthen that area. Kwasi brings both quality and versatility to our squad.
His ability to play multiple positions adds depth to the team, and his wealth of experience will undoubtedly benefit us in key moments.” Asante, speaking about joining Kotoko, said: “Joining Kotoko feels like a homecoming for me.
This is a club I’ve admired for years because of its history and passion. When the opportunity came, I didn’t have to think twice because I want to be part of something special here.
I know the fans have high expectations, and I’m ready to give everything I’ve got to meet them. Competition for places is part of football, and I welcome it because it makes us all better.
I’m here to work hard, contribute to the team, and help Kotoko achieve its goals this season.”
