Published on: 22 June 2023

Scottish-born Ghanaian defender, Ewan Otoo has opened up on his decision to seal a permanent move to Dunfermline FC from giants, Celtic.

Otto has signed a three-year deal with the side.

Otoo helped Dunfermline to the League One title after making 11 appearances for the club.

The youngster can now look forward to playing his football in the Scottish Championship next season.

Speaking about his move, Otto said that his goal after his loan spell was to return to Dunfermline next season.

“The kind of person I am, I’m kind of open to anything," the promising centre-back told Dunfermline FC.

“My goal for the loan was to be in a position where Dunfermline wanted me back for the next season, so from that point of view I think it’s been a success.

“Then, from the way it went personally, I made my mind up that I wanted to come back. All in all, I would say I’m happy that’s the way it’s went.

“I feel like I ended last season quite strongly, so that’s something I’m hoping to do.

He continued, “Hopefully just hit the ground running, start really strongly and continue that through to this season.

“I didn’t want last season to end, I enjoyed it that much! In my head, I kind of knew this would be the best place for me to be playing football next season.

“I had interest from elsewhere, I had a couple of clubs that were monitoring my situation.

“But, as I said, I had my mind pretty much made up. I think it’s the best place to continue my development," he added.

Otoo is a Celtic Academy graduate. He was capped by Scotland at youth level and made his debut against Russia U-17 in August 2018.
