Asante Kotoko loses appeal against former coach CK Akonnor
The Appeals Committee of the Ghana Football Association (GFA) has upheld the decision of the Player Status Committee with respect to the contractual dispute between Coach Charles Kwablan Akonnor and Asante Kotoko SC.
It would be recalled that the Player Status Committee found Asante Kotoko guilty of breaches in the contract with Akonnor and asked the club to pay him compensation.
The ruling of the Appeals Committee has been communicated to both parties.
Asante Kotoko terminated their contract with the former Wolfsburg captain last year after helping them to clinch the 2019 GFA Normalization Committee Special Competition tier-1.
He is currently the head coach of the Black Stars of Ghana.
According to reports, the Appeal Committee of the Ghana FA has ordered the Porcupine Warriors to pay a hefty compensation fee around ¢189,000.
He was reportedly receiving ¢7000 monthly salary at Asante Kotoko before his sacking with 27 months left on his contract.
