Asante Kotoko legend Malik Jabir blames Maxwell Konadu for Felix Annan’s exit from club

Asante Kotoko legend Malik Jabir has blamed former trainer Maxwell Konadu for Felix Annan’s exit from the club.

The former captain of the Porcupine Warriors lost his place in the starting eleven after leaving camp to marry his longtime girlfriend.

Speaking on Angel FM, the veteran trainer asserted Maxwell Konadu’s inability to manage issues at the club caused Annan departure.

“When I heard there is a rift among the goalkeepers at the time, I stepped in and held a meeting with the players and coach (Maxwell Konadu), I asked Konadu why they want to do away with some goalkeepers and he told me some feels too big”

“I advised the coach to make a program to maintain his goalkeepers and field whoever is fit at anytime during matchday because they are all good goalkeepers”

“Suddenly, I heard the club has parted ways with Felix Annan, I called Maxwell Konadu and told him it’s a mistake because he was a goalkeeper who kept the post for two years for the club

“Konadu caused this mistake, it still hurt me because he was a gem for us, can’t you marry if you are a player?  It’s not about management, he was the coach and decides everything. Marriage and funeral, you have got to take part and help him do it, that will give him a peace of mind to give you the best”

Felix Annan is currently without a club after leaving American club Maryland Bobcats this year.
