Former Asante Kotoko winger Richard Mpong has called on the Ghanaian giants to exercise patience with new trainer Dr Prosper Nartey Ogum.
Ogum joined the Porcupine Warriors on a two-year deal from WAFA after leading the Academy boys to a third-place finish in the 2020/21 season.
He replaced Portuguese coach Mariano Bareto who ended his stint with the club at the end of the season.
In an interview with Koforidua-based Aben FM, the former Black Stars winger entreated management and fans of Kotoko to be patient with the new coach.
“I know Prosper Nartey very well and I believe he can succeed with Kotoko if he is not pressured. The fans should not pressure him to win trophies. He should be given at least 2-3 years to build a formidable side”
“Ghanaian clubs do not give coaches time and I don’t think that is the best. It is the reason why they struggle at some point in time” he said.
