Dr. Prosper Narteh Ogum is set to walk away with a total payout of $36,000 after parting ways with Asante Kotoko, according to an exclusive report by Nhyira FM.
The former head coach will receive $20,000 in unpaid salary arrears covering five months, alongside a $16,000 severance package as part of his exit settlement from the club. His departure comes on the back of a disappointing run of results that derailed Kotoko’s title ambitions in the Ghana Premier League.
Ogum, who returned for a second spell in 2023, was unable to match the success of his initial tenure, leading the club’s hierarchy to seek a new direction. The club has since appointed experienced tactician Abdul Karim Zito as interim head coach and technical director, with hopes of turning the season around.
Kotoko currently occupy fourth place in the league standings and are still in the hunt for the MTN FA Cup title, with six games remaining to mount a late challenge for the league crown.
