It would have been criminal not to have coached Kotoko - Duncan

In his first formal and open interaction with Asante Kotoko players, newly appointed head coach, David Duncan has said it would have been “criminal” for him not to have coached Kotoko.

The coach made this disclosure while addressing the players at the Eulma Stadium Annex in Eulma, Algeria where the Porcupine Warriors are preparing for Saturday’s CAF Champions League, 1/16th stage, first leg match against Mouloudia Club d'El Eulma.

“In all my coaching life; I have served at my father’s hometown, that’s in the Fanti area. My father is a Fanti. I’ve served where I was raised – where I’ve spent virtually all the days of my life; that’s Accra. I’ve served all the two glamorous, traditional or well-known clubs – Olympics and Hearts…It would’ve been very criminal not to have served where my mother comes from.”

He expressed his happiness at Kotoko saying, “Even before this announcement or this introduction, you had speculated, you had assumed. As a matter of fact, I’m happy to be here. Being amongst you confirms what you have been hearing. I am happy to be here.”
