Asante Kotoko have been enlivened by the return of midfielder Justice Blay from a long injury lay-off.
The 30-year-old who joined the Porcupine Warriors before the start of the second half of last season suffered a knee injury at training prior to the sides matchday 24 clash against Hearts of Oak in 2021/22 campaign.
Blay was subsequently ruled out of the season, where he underwent surgery to correct his knee injury.
But the former Medeama star has resumed training with the group. His return will be a huge boost for the reigning Ghana Premier League champions in their quest to retain the title.
He made only seven appearances in the 2021-2022 campaign for Asante Kotoko.
