Sudan’s National Men’s Football Team head coach, James Kwasi Appiah, has been appointed as head of sporting affairs at Kumasi Asante Kotoko Sporting Club.
Up until the appointment, the former Kotoko player served as a member of Kotoko’s Interim Management Committee (IMC).
The development comes at a time where a handful of changes have been made to Kotoko’s hierarchy recently.
Kotoko head coach Dr. Prosper Ogum also served on the IMC but has been directed to focus solely on coaching the Porcupine Warriors. Malik Jabir has been appointed as technical director.
Kwasi Appiah is coming off leading Sudan to the 2025 AFCON beating Ghana in the process in remarkable fashion considering Sudan is going through a civil war and played all home games outside the country.
1982 AFCON winner, Appiah, is also returning to his position as a Ghana Football Association Executive Council member with his suspension coming to an end following Ghana’s game against Sudan in the last international window of 2024.
Kotoko got a 2-0 over Aduana Stars to end a four game losing run in the Ghana Premier League; Kotoko take on Future Stars in the MTN FA Cup on Sunday, December 1 at the Obuasi Len Clay Stadium at 15:00 GMT.
