Guinean forward Naby Laye Keita says he is not feeling scared at Asante Kotoko despite the arrival of highly-rated striker Kwame Poku.
Poku was signed by the Porcupine Warriors this year to give Maxwell Konadu’s team a squad boost as they compete in the 2019/2020 Ghana Premier League season.
According to Naby Keita who has been with the Reds for the last few weeks, the addition of a new player who plays in his position brings competition but he is in no way scared.
“It will be very difficult for me with his presence at the club. If a club has many strikers you always work hard to be picked but if you are one or two you will be reluctant towards your training because you always know you’d be selected”, the Guinean striker told Kotoko Express.
He added, “Kwame [Poku] is a very very good striker. The first time I saw him I was very happy for him as a striker. Yacouba who was one of our best strikers is no more with us so we have to show the supporters that we can be like him or even better”.
Strikers Kwame Poku and Naby Keita will be fighting for starting roles with the likes of William Opoku Mensah, as well as Richard Arthur.
