Asante Kotoko are lining up a move for in-form Berekum Chelsea midfielder Hubert Gyau, in what could be one of the key signings of the upcoming transfer window, sources close to the club have confirmed.
The 23-year-old has been one of the standout performers for Berekum Chelsea in the ongoing 2024/25 Ghana Premier League season, attracting attention with his consistent displays in the heart of midfield. Known for his work rate, tactical awareness, and ability to dictate the tempo of play, Gyau has become a key figure in Chelsea’s setup this season.
In the current campaign, Gyau has made 27 league appearances, scoring 3 goals and providing 5 assists —a notable return for a central midfielder. He has also averaged 2.1 key passes, 1.8 tackles, and 1.3 interceptions per game, highlighting his all-round contributions both offensively and defensively. His composure on the ball and ability to transition play quickly have made him one of the most reliable midfielders in the league this season.
Berekum Chelsea are reportedly open to releasing the player at the end of the season, with insiders indicating that talks have already taken place between the two clubs. While no deal has been finalized yet, the transfer is viewed as a matter of time, with Kotoko eager to bolster their midfield ahead of the 2025/26 season.
Asante Kotoko have been actively scouting local talents as part of their rebuilding process, following an inconsistent league campaign. Hubert Gyau fits the profile of young, energetic, and technically gifted players the club is targeting to restore their dominance in Ghanaian football.
