Former Kumasi Asante Kotoko Sporting Club midfielder, Richmond Lamptey, is expected to earn a monthly salary of $10,000 with his new team Armee Police Rwanda.
Lamptey who joined the Rwandan side on a two year deal recently, is set to be one of the highest earners at the club that has ambitions of making a deep run in the CAF Champions League next season after winning the Rwandan Football League.
The former Inter Allies player battled injuries in the 2023-2024 Ghana Premier League season making 17 appearances and registering five assists for Kotoko.
The Porcupine Warriors finished sixth in the 18 team league standings in what is generally considered a disappointing campaign from the Kumasi side.
Lamptey’s departure is part of a mass exit of players from Kotoko after the season; as many as 21 players have been moved from the club including big names like Danlad Ibrahim, Eric Serge Zeze and Georges Mfegue. (Click highlighted text to read full story)
27 year old Lamptey was part of Ghana’s Black Stars squad at the 2023 AFCON in Cote D’Ivoire but didn’t feature in any of Ghana’s three games at the competition as the Black Stars got eliminated at the group stage.
