“There's a club in UK that wanted to employ me as director of Football,” the Kotoko CEO said while adding “People should respect the institution Asante Kotoko. My salary was negotiated with the board.”
In his first year as CEO of Asante Kotoko, Nana Yaw Amponsah has managed to secure a number of sponsorship deals for the club.
According to him, the club has already raked in $900,000 dollars since he took over.
