The midfielder has admitted that he may accept an opportunity to rejoin the Porcupine Warriors in the future
Former Asante Kotoko deputy captain Emmanuel Gyamfi has admitted that he is ready to play for Asante Kotoko in future despite the bizarre manner in which he left the club few months ago.
The 28-year-old joined left Kotoko ahead of the start of the 2021/22 season after he was alleged to have led mutiny in the dressing room.
Although, he was arguably one of Kotoko’s star performers last season, his contract was mutually terminated and he joined Aduana Stars as a free agent.
“I really loved Asante Kotoko but the club is not mine so I had to leave when the situation was different,” Gyamfi told Akoma FM.
“I am not intentionally playing well for Aduana Stars this season to prove something to Kotoko. I always play with all my heart for any club I’ve represented.
“My teammates at Aduana have been crucial to my fine form. Also, I think I had a good pre-season wen I arrived. I am scoring now because I am playing as an attacker while I was used predominantly as a midfielder in Kotoko. I wanted to play as an attacker in Kotoko but they denied me that opportunity”
Gyamfi, who is not eyeing for the goal king diadem despite his fine form, has further revealed that he would not celebrate a goal against Kotoko when he scores for Aduana out of respect.
“In a game against Kotoko, if the opportunity comes I will score but I will not celebrate the goal because it is a club that gave me the opportunity. If I do well here who knows I may return to the club one day,” he said.
“My focus is not to win the goal king but to help my team win the league.
We are focused on each match as it comes, we will win the league if the opportunity comes.”
He added: “I am not desperate for a Black Stars call up but if the opportunity comes i will grab it. I am not obsessed about that, i just want to focus on my game but if the call comes, i will be happy.”
After eight games, Gyamfi has proven his mettle for the Dormaa Ahenkro-based club as he has netted five times and provided three assists to help Aduana top the league log with 20 points, three points above Kotoko who sit in second place.
