Former Black Stars coach CK Akonnor open to Asante Kotoko return

Former Black Stars coach, Charles Akonnor is interested in returning to Ghanaian giants Asante Kotoko.

Kotoko are without a coach after Prosper Ogum, who guided them to the Ghana Premier League last season, shockingly resigned.

Akonnor spent a year with the Porcupine Warriors between 2018 and 2019.

It was the first time in 13 years that Kotoko advanced to the group stage of a Caf interclub competition.

Akonnor’s excellent work at Kotoko earned him a job with the Black Stars in early 2020.

“For me returning to Kotoko will be on a different level. Kotoko was full of joy and though I went through a lot of pressure, it was a positive one,” he told Kumasi-based Akoma FM.

Akonnor was fired as Black Stars coach in September 2021 after only 10 games in charge. Akonnor lost four matches, won four and drew two.
