Berekum Chelsea coach Steve Pollack denies Kotoko talks

Published on: 01 May 2017

Head coach of Berekum Chelsea, Steve Pollack says speculations that he is in talks with Kumasi Asante Kotoko are just "rumours"

The former King Faisal coach has been linked to the vacant Asante Kotoko coaching job with reports that he could step in for the second round of the Ghana Premier League.

The Porcupine Warriors are currently on the hunt for a substantive trainer following the dismissal of Croatian coach Zdravko Logarusic last month.

Former Kotoko defender Frimpong Manso has been handed a temporal role as interim coach with assistance from Godwin Ablordey.

“So many [journalists] have called me asking me the same question [on whether I will be joining Kotoko]," Pollack told Space FM.

“I think you know more than what I know but what I will say is, it’s a rumour.

“Off course there is no smoke without fire but like I have said it’s a rumour.

“You know it’s an honour to be linked but I have not spoken with anybody from Kotoko.

“No club has called me. At the moment I’m with Chelsea and that’s where my priority is for now. In football, you don’t know what’s going to happen

“If I’m approached? Now I’m with Chelsea and cannot predict the future but like I said at the moment my priority is Chelsea."

Polack, whose Chelsea side currently sit third on the Ghana Premier League table - two places above Kotoko.
