Coach Prosper Narteh Ogum has returned to Asante Kotoko as head coach for the upcoming football season, according to Opemsuo Radio.
Ogum first led the team to success in the 2021/22 Ghana Premier League season, capturing the league title in his debut. Despite signing a two-year contract with the club, he was unceremoniously fired.
Before the 2022/23 Ghana Premier League season began, a Burkinabe coach named Seydou Zerbo was hired to replace Prosper Ogum. Nevertheless, Zerbo lost against Medeama SC at the Baba Yara Stadium and was fired midway through the season.
The team's interim coach, Abdul Gazale, an assistant coach, guided them to a 52-point fourth-place finish.
Former Black Stars coach James Kwesi Appiah was instructed by Manhyia to look for a new head coach for the club. According to the local radio station the search team has settled on Dr. Prosper Ogum.
The upcoming 2023/24 season is set to begin in September.
