Burkina Faso international Songne Yacouba is set to leave Asante Kotoko on a free transfer after contract talks stall, according to Executive chairman Kwame Kyei.
Yacouba's contract is due to expire next month and talks over a new deal have hit a snag with the club unwilling to meet high demands and the player is understood to be seeking a move elsewhere.
Several African clubs have expressed interest in signing the 28-year-old goal poacher who has impressed his joining the Porcupine Warriors.
"We met him [Yacouba] and his representatives to discuss his contract extension but their demands can’t be fulfilled by Kotoko," Kyei said.
"Before God and man, we can’t pay the $150,000 [€135,247] he has been demanding since we started negotiations.
"Kotoko can’t pay such amount of money for his contract renewal.
"His contract will end soon and he will leave the club because he is not ready to agree to our terms."
