WAFA make their move for Francis Acquah
$470.0K on the table at Asante Kotoko. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.

In brief
- Squad Abdul-Aziz Nurudeen is a square peg at WAFA
- Squad Samuel Asamoah loses the armband
- Boardroom WAFA say no to the training-ground money
