Ofori Antwi reiterates desire to return to Kotoko

Goalkeeper Eric Ofori Antwi has reiterated his desire to rejoin giants Asante Kotoko. 

The highly-rated shot-stopper joined Legon Cities FC prior to the commencement of the 2021/22 season from fellow Premier League side Medeama, but has left just after a season. 

Reports in the local media suggest Ofori Antwi decided against staying for the next season because the Royals failed to honour their portion of the contractual obligations between them.

But he has insisted that it was not the main reason for leaving the Accra-based club, revealing that he would not reject a return to his former club, Asante Kotoko.

“I’m no longer a player for Legon Cities. We have mutually parted ways. It’s not about the money issues you have heard about alone, although it is part of the reasons I have decided to leave the club, “he told Sompa FM in Kumasi.

“These things affect the performance of players.

When asked if he would fancy a return to his former club, Asante Kotoko, he said:

” I will not reject a return to Kotoko. It[Kotoko] really helped my career when I played for them, so I am ready to return if I’m presented with another opportunity. ” 

However, the 27-year-old has been linked with a move to newly-promoted Ghana Premier League outfit Nsoatreman FC. 

Ofori Antwi joined the Porcupine Warriors from Amidaus Professionals in 2013 as first-choice, but fell off the pecking order behind Ernest Sowah and Felix Annan under interim manager Michael Osei.
