Ghanaian giants Asante Kotoko are making moves in the ongoing transfer window as they look to strengthen their squad ahead of the upcoming season. The Porcupine Warriors are on the verge of completing the acquisition of Berekum Chelsea defender Patrick Asiedu.
The highly-rated 21-year-old left-back impressed with his top-class performances for Berekum Chelsea, who finished third in the recently concluded Ghana Premier League campaign. Asiedu’s standout displays did not go unnoticed, as he caught the attention of Asante Kotoko and other clubs in the Ghana Premier League.
Reports indicate that Kotoko and Chelsea have reached an agreement for the transfer of Asiedu, with the defender set to travel to Kumasi to undergo his medical before officially joining the Porcupine Warriors. It is expected that Asiedu will sign a three-year deal that will see him stay at Asante Kotoko until 2027.
Asante Kotoko is determined to bounce back from their disappointing sixth-place finish in the last season and is looking to strengthen their squad with talented players like Asiedu. The signing of the promising left-back is seen as a step in the right direction for the former Ghana Premier League champions as they aim for a successful campaign in the upcoming season.
