Asante Kotoko have bolstered their squad with the signing of 24-year-old right-back Daniel Adrian Adjetey on a one-and-a-half-year deal following a successful medical.
Adjetey, who brings significant international experience, previously played for Naestved in Denmark’s Division 2 and BFC Daugavpils in Latvia’s top division.
He began his career in Ghana with Nania FC, where he developed a reputation as a reliable right-back, combining defensive stability with attacking prowess.
Kotoko’s Head Coach, Dr. Prosper Narteh Ogum, expressed his excitement about the new addition, particularly in light of the squad’s recent injury concerns.
“With Kotei’s unfortunate ACL injury, it was important that we reacted in the market. In Daniel, we are not just bringing in a player but someone who brings quality, experience, and competitiveness,” he said. Ogum added:
“He will not only strengthen our squad but also challenge Lord Amoah for that position, which is key for us moving forward. We’re confident he’ll make an impact both defensively and offensively.” Speaking about his move to the Porcupine Warriors, Adjetey shared his enthusiasm:
“It’s an incredible feeling to join Kotoko. This is one of the biggest clubs in Africa, and I’m honored to be part of it. I’ve had the privilege of playing abroad, but coming back to represent Kotoko feels special.
The project presented by the club’s management is exciting, and I’m confident this is the right place for me to grow as a player and contribute to something great.
I know the expectations here are high, and I’m ready to work hard, compete for my place, and give my all to help the team succeed.
“Adjetey is expected to provide much-needed depth and competition in the right-back position as Kotoko look to strengthen their squad for the remainder of the season.
