Karim Zito highlights Kotoko’s issues, says the players “feel so comfortable”

Asante Kotoko interim coach, Abdul Karim Zito, is of the view that the players of the club feel ‘so comfortable’ and that could be one of the problems of the team.

The former Dreams FC coach has replaced Dr Prosper Narteh Ogum, who was sacked on Monday, April 23, 2025, following the poor run of results at the club.

Zito has been tasked to lead the club back to the top of the table and possibly win the FA Cup, with the Reds at the semi-final stage of the competition.

“We met the players, we saw their predicament, so many problems. We went to the club house and I saw that they feel so comfortable. I don’t know Hearts of Oak but I know Dreams FC, if sometime human beings feel so comfortable, they forget their target in life,” he told reporters.

“So it is our problem not only on the field of play, and that is why as a coach you need to study psychology,” he added.

Kotoko will host Aduana Stars in Zito’s first game in charge of the Kumasi-based giants at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium on Sunday.
