Newly appointed Asante Kotoko interim head coach and Technical Director, Abdul Karim Zito, has acknowledged the challenge of returning to the summit of the Ghana Premier League but remains confident in the club’s ability to fight back.
Zito, a veteran tactician and former Ghana U20 coach, takes charge of the Porcupine Warriors following the departure of Dr. Prosper Narteh Ogum. His appointment comes at a crucial juncture, with the club enduring a dip in form and struggling for consistency in recent weeks.
Speaking during his unveiling, Zito stated:
“Getting back to the top of the table is difficult but not impossible, and it’s never over until the end.”
His words reflect a determined mindset as Kotoko seek to revive their campaign.
Currently fourth on the league table, the Kumasi-based giants are aiming to rediscover their momentum and mount a late push for the title. With seven matches remaining, Zito’s leadership will be vital as the team looks to respond positively to recent setbacks.
His first major test will come this weekend when Kotoko face Aduana Stars in a key Premier League clash — a fixture that could shape the direction of their season under his guidance.
