Frederick Acheampong denies links to Asante Kotoko CEO post

Published on: 04 July 2023

Executive Council Member of the Ghana Football Association (GFA) Frederick Acheampong has denied any involvement in the vacant CEO position at Kumasi Asante Kotoko.

Speculation arose after the club's board, led by Dr. Kwame Kyei, was dissolved by Asantehene Otumfuo Nana Osei Tutu II due to the club's disappointing performance during the 2022/23 season.

During an interview on Max FM, Acheampong swiftly dismissed the rumors, expressing surprise at the reports connecting him to the CEO role.

He refuted the claims, emphasizing that they lacked factual basis.

"It's not true. Do they know my friends? There's no truth about it," Acheampong stated emphatically.

With the dissolution of the board, Kumasi Asante Kotoko now faces the task of appointing new leaders who can effectively address the challenges that the previous board failed to overcome.

Former Ghana coach Kwasi Appiah has reportedly held a meeting with the Asantehene over becoming the club's head coach.
