Asante Kotoko issue statement on Nicholas Mensah’s ban by GFA

Ghana Premier League giants, Asante Kotoko have responded to the Disciplinary Committee’s decision about the protest Aduana Stars filed against the use of Nicholas Mensah in the Ghana Premier League matchup during Week 10.

While the Porcupine Warriors club is pleased that the protest has been rejected, it expresses concern that the player may have suffered mentally as a result of the incident.

In line with this, the club says it will provide every needed help for the player.

“Aduana FC filed a protest against Asante Kotoko SC for fielding an unqualified player in the person of Nicholas Mensah after our match day 10 encounter. 

“The protest case has been determined and duly dismissed. However, the registration of Nicholas Mensah has been suspended due to infractions which according to the Disciplinary Committee occurred prior to him joining Asante Kotoko. 

“Our legal team is dealing with the matter and would take the necessary steps to assist the player. 

“Nicholas will be given the necessary psychological help throughout this debacle.”
