Kotoko coach Prosper Narteh Ogum aims to build a team to compete internationally

Asante Kotoko’s head coach, Prosper Narteh Ogum, has emphasized his goal to elevate the club’s competitiveness both at the domestic and international levels.

Ogum, 45, previously led the Porcupine Warriors to victory in the Ghana Premier League during the 2021/22 season. However, a controversial departure from the club before the start of the following season occurred due to reported disagreements with management.

Having officially returned to Kotoko and been unveiled on Monday, August 7, 2023, Ogum shared his aspirations to rejuvenate the team’s competitive edge within Ghana and beyond.

Expressing his enthusiasm, Ogum stated, “I’m overly excited and overwhelmed about this opportunity and nothing else comes close, probably the day I got married, but I have to say that I am excited to be here again,” Ogum said.

He outlined his initial focus, saying, “My first year is to put together a very formidable team that can compete both domestically and internationally. However, you can’t be at Kotoko and not think of bringing success.”

Following a disappointing previous season that led to a fourth-place finish, the Porcupine Warriors are determined to reclaim their competitive stature under Ogum’s leadership.
