Speaking to Akoma FM, in a recent media interview, the former player juxtaposed the players from his playing days and now by suggesting that the club needs a fresh recruitment policy that will see it poach talents abroad.
“They (Kotoko) have no special quality players like they used to have in the past such as Stephen Oduro, Jordan, and the rest.
“I won’t blame the current management for recruiting these average players because the league itself lacks quality. Most of the players playing in the other clubs are average ones unlike during our time when most of the players were in the senior national teams,”
“If Kotoko really wants to recruit quality, they need to scout outside the shores of Ghana and that is costly. The fans however must support the team financially by attending matches so management can recruit the kind of quality they (supporters) are craving for” he ended.
Kotoko are currently fifth on the log in the ongoing betPawa Premier League as they travel away to the Golden City park to face off with Berekum Chelsea.
