An offer of $4.3M for Luther Mphela
Asante Kotoko have gone to Ajax Cape Town with a bid, and the supporters have gone to the internet with an opinion about it. Whether either changes anything is up to the selling club.

Emmanuel Antwi hands in a written request
“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Asante Kotoko can pretend not to have heard.

A move Abba Musa would have made for nothing
There is a version of every career where the player ends up somewhere he chose rather than somewhere that chose him. Abba Musa is living that version at Asante Kotoko, and it tends to show in the first month.

Door shut on Samba Sissoko
Asante Kotoko asked and BA All Stars said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

$150.0K for Mohammed Kyereh, and Asante Kotoko supporters approve
Boards get told what they have done wrong for years and hear nothing on the days they get it right. This is one of those days: Mohammed Kyereh from Wa All Stars for $150.0K, and a ticket office having a very good morning.

Morifing Donzo in a row with a teammate
It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Asante Kotoko this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Too much change too quickly at Asante Kotoko
9 signings in three months. Every one of them may be an upgrade and the team can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild that never appears in the transfer-window verdicts.

Abba Musa is a square peg at Asante Kotoko
The system has changed and his position has not. A footballer can improve his form; he cannot improve the manager’s formation, and that is the whole of the problem.

Asante Kotoko sign Mohammed Kyereh, one for the future
Mohammed Kyereh is 18, and Asante Kotoko have signed him for the player he will be rather than the one he is. The first team can wait; the point of a deal like this is the years it buys.
