Asante Kotoko interim coach, Karim Zito, and his assistant, Prince Yaw Owusu, have been given the responsibility of securing both the Ghana Premier League title and the MTN FA Cup.
Zito and Owusu were appointed as temporary coaches after the dismissal of Prosper Narteh Ogum, who was let go due to the club’s underwhelming performance.
With 28 matches completed, Kotoko currently sit in 4th place on the league table with 47 points, but they have struggled in recent games, going four matches without a win.
Despite this, the Porcupine Warriors have advanced to the semi-finals of the FA Cup, where they will face Berekum Chelsea.
Sarfo Duku, the club’s Communications Director, expressed confidence in Zito’s abilities.
“Coach Karim Zito is not new in the system,” the club’s Communications Director, Sarfo Duku, said.
“He has been around, following the local league. He knows the players very well.
“He will have to put on course the mission that we set for ourselves — that is, winning the double.
“We think that with the experience and pedigree of Coach Karim Zito and Owusu, they should be able to keep that dream alive,” he added.
Zito will be eager to make an immediate impact when Kotoko face Aduana FC in their Matchday 29 clash at the Baba Yara Stadium on Sunday.
