The spokesperson of the Asante Kotoko China Circles 0086, Martin Tawiah, has expressed disappointment over goalkeeper Frederick Asare’s delay in extending his contract with the club, accusing the player and his management of showing a lack of commitment in recent discussions.
Speaking with MTV, Tawiah revealed that despite Asare’s important role at the club—including serving as captain in recent matches—there has been no progress in contract extension talks, with his current deal set to expire in August 2025.
“Frederick Asare has been a good servant at Kotoko. He is even the captain, so if he wants to leave, he has to do so amicably,” Tawiah said.
“But rather, he and his manager have refused to meet with Kotoko to speak about the contract extension. His contract ends in August and they are dragging their feet.”
Tawiah added a stern warning to the player, hinting at possible fallout should he choose to walk away without proper closure:
“He can leave, but he should know that when he leaves, he shouldn’t ever think about returning.”
Frederick Asare has been one of Kotoko’s most consistent performers in the past two seasons, and his departure would represent a significant blow to the club’s rebuilding plans ahead of the 2025/26 campaign.
It remains unclear whether the club will make another push to keep him or begin preparations to find a replacement in the upcoming transfer window.
