Asante Kotoko is a not a rebuilding club, says club legend Joe Debrah

Published on: 03 October 2023

Asante Kotoko legend, Joe Debrah beleives the club is not one that engages in rebuilding but rather signs mature players who are ready to perform.

His comments come in the wake of the club's slow start to the 2023/24 Ghana Premier League season.

Prosper Narteh Ogum has signed players from lower-tier sides with the view to rebuilding a solid team.

Ogum has admitted that he needs to work on the confidence of some of these new arrivals, given their lack of top-flight experience.

Debrah insists rebuilding has never been the culture at his former club.

"There is never a rebuilding at Kotoko. Kotoko is a team that has players who are ready from the start of the league. So, when the league starts, we just take off," he told Kumasi-based Kessben FM.

“So, if the coaches and people say we are rebuilding, we are watching," he added.

Asante Kotoko have so far recorded two draws and a defeat and are yet to record a win.

Prosper Narteh Ogum will hope to record a win when they travel to play Accra Lions in the matchday four games this weekend at the Accra Sports Stadium.
