The Phobians are seeking to strengthen their defence in their ambition to end a run without major trophy since 2009.

Asante Kotoko officially explain their side in brouhaha with former coach Maxwell Konadu

The Porcupines have issued a statement highlighting why they are demanding $22,800 from their former coach

Asante Kotoko top hierarchy have explained why they are demanding $22,800 from former coach Maxwell Konadu on Tuesday, AshesGyamera.com can confirm.

The Porcupine Warriors have been in the news recently after reports suggested that they’ve written to former coach Konadu to pay $22,800 for keeping a vehicle that belongs to the club after he was sacked in December.

Although, Konadu has argued that he kept the vehicle because he was not paid after the wrongful dismissal, Kotoko insist they made an initial payment plan to Konadu but he rejected their offer.

Kotoko, in spite of their off the field issues, will play King Faisal in the Ghana Premier League on Wednesday at the Ohene Ameyaw Park in Techiman after surprisingly losing to Elmina Sharks over the weekend.

Asante Kotoko chase Maxwell Konadu for $22,800 over breach of contract

The Porcupine Warriors have began a series of exchanges with their former boss as they have officially written to him to demand a whopping amount

Ghana Premier League giants Asante Kotoko have written to former coach Maxwell Konadu demanding him to pay $22,800 after leaving his post months ago, according to a report filled by Nhyira FM.

Konadu, who was sacked in December after series of poor results, has still been using a Toyota Fortuner 4×4 vehicle which was handed over to him as official vehicle to aid his role at the club.

This has led to Kotoko’s management writing to Konadu to pay an accumulated amount of $22,800 to the club as they have pegged a daily cost of $300 incurred from 19th Dec, 2020 – 5th March, 2021 for what they term “loss of use”.

Kotoko was given the car in 2020 together with chief executive officer Nana Yaw Amponsah after Board member Kofi Aban donated two Toyota Fortuner cars to the club.

It will be recalled that Konadu, following his sacking, has taken Kotoko to Ghana Football Association’s Player Status Committee to demand compensation and his unpaid signing on fee as well as winning bonuses in games he led Kotoko to record victories.

Hearts of Oak confirm Kosta Papic’s departure; Nii Noi takes over

The Phobians are currently without a head coach after the Serbian manager surprisingly handed in his resignation letter on Monday

Ghana Premier League giants Hearts of Oak have confirmed the departure of coach Kostadian Papic and goalkeeping coach Ben Owu after hours of speculations in the local media.

Papic, who replaced Edward Nii Odoom in December, spent only 78 days in office and opted to mutually terminate his contract with the Phobians following constant disagreements with the club’s top hierarchy on issues.

The Serbian tactician had an enviable start with the Phobians as he picked four wins in his opening six games. However, he failed to win any of his last four league games leading to excessive pressure on him.


The club’s U-15 coach, Samuel Nii Noi will take charge in the interim until a new coach arrives in the future.

He becomes the third coach to manage the club this season
