Asante Kotoko have announced their 23-man travelling squad for the crucial CAF Confederation Cup second leg clash against Kwara United in Abuja on Sunday, September 28.
Head coach Karim Zito has opted for a blend of experience and youth, with goalkeepers Aziz Haruna Dari and Mohammed Gamara making the cut.
The defensive unit is packed with options including Lord Amoah, Musa Hamzata, Joseph Amoah, Patrick Asiedu, Zackaria Fuseini, Ansu Henry, Samba O’Neil, and Joseph Ablorh, who will be tasked with providing solidity at the back.
In midfield, the Porcupine Warriors boast depth with Seth Kwadwo, Lord Hillary Adabo, Gyau Hubert, Antwi Emmanuel, Fuseini Walid Neymar, Amoh Philip, Listowel H. Hinne, and Amidu Peter all named. Their creativity and balance will be crucial against the Nigerians.
Up front, Donzo Morifing and in-form striker Albert Amoah—who scored twice in the first leg—will lead the attack as Kotoko aim to protect their 4-3 aggregate advantage from the Accra Sports Stadium.
The Reds face a tough test in Abuja, with Kwara United determined to overturn the deficit, but the squad selected shows Kotoko’s intent to fight for progression to the next stage of the competition.
