Asante Kotoko legend Samuel Opoku Nti has backed the club to sign Mohammed Alhassan to augment the defensive setup of the team.
The Porcupine Warriors are yet to live up to expectation in the ongoing Ghana Premier League campaign despite being third on the league log.
The record Ghana Premier League holders were held to a 1-1 draw at the Baba Yara Stadium on Sunday.
They currently sit third on the league log with 19 points after 11 matches into the campaign.
Reports in the local media suggest Kotoko are in talks to sign Mohammed Alhassan who was shown the exit at Hearts of Oak recently.
Speaking to Kumasi-based Oyerepa FM, the former Kotoko CEO asserted the addition of Mohammed Alhassan benefit the club.
“If Kotoko are able to sign Mohammed Alhassan, he will help the team. He has a rich experience and he will augment the back line if he joins.
Kotoko need a tough and experience defender to guide and control the back seat.” He said.
