Asante Kotoko are set to confirm the appointment of Nana Yaw Amponsah as the club’s Chief Executive on Friday, Citi Sports has learned.
The former Ghana Football Association Presidential candidate has been linked to the job in the last few months and attended an interview with the club’s board in July.
After consultation with Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, the Board of Directors have now been given the green light to make his appointment public.
The club has been without a substantive CEO since the new board was installed in May 2020.
Nana Yaw Amponsah holds a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Psychology and Political Science from the University of Ghana, Legon, and a Master’s Degree in Sports Law and Practice from the Leicester DE Monort University, UK.
From 2008 to 2018, he was a Licensed Player Agent/Intermediary and transferred over 50 players from Ghana and almost 100 across the globe, which brought huge revenues to Ghanaian Clubs in the process.
He will be tasked with transforming the club into one of the best football brands on the continent.
