Asante Kotoko youngster Isaac Oppong touted as the next Dong Bortey

Hearts of Oak legend Bernard Dong Bortey believes teen sensation Isaac Oppong can become his successor.

The youngster scored a late winner for the Porcupine Warriors to mark his return to full fitness after struggling in the 2021/22 season due to injury setbacks.

Isaac Oppong found space in the box and slotted home at the death to give Kotoko an important first leg win in CAF Champions League preliminary round.

“Isaac Oppong of Asante Kotoko is the next Don Bortey, he just needs little guidance to get there” he told Seth Kojo Amoah Mayanga of Union FM in Sunyani.

Isaac Oppong is expected to weave his magic on Sunday in the reverse fixture of the CAF Champions League preliminary round.
