Evans Adotey praises David Duncan, Umar Rabbi after Medeama's Premier League title triumph

Published on: 12 June 2023

Medeama SC coach, Evans Adotey has credited his predecessors, David Duncan and Umar Rabbi following their Premier League title win.

The Yellow and Mauve secured their first league title on Sunday following a 3-0 win over Tamale City at Akoon Park.

Joshua Agyemang broke the deadlock before Jonathan Sowah scored a brace in the second half to wrap up the win.

Duncan was named manager of the club before the start of the 2022/23 season but was sacked due to poor run of results.

Assistant coach, Umar Rabbi was named as the interim boss until Adotey took over as the substantive coach.

“Nobody should blame David Duncan, Umar [Rabbi], they did a yeoman’s job, they started," Adotey told StarTimes after annexing the title.

“I came in the halfway so it doesn’t mean I just came and won the cup.

“They gathered some points and I also continued and until this final day.

“So the congratulation is not meant for me alone, it is a collective congratulations.

“[David] Duncan part, Umar [Rabbi] is part even those all the technical men they are all part, it is not me alone.," he added.

Medeama SC will represent Ghana in the 2023/24 CAF Champions League next season.
