Vincent Atinga on the verge of joining Asante Kotoko

Former Hearts of Oak defender Vincent Atinga is reportedly set for a shock move to bitter rivals Asante Kotoko ahead of the forthcoming season.

The defender parted ways with the Phobians after failing to reach contract renewal terms at the end of last season.

Atinga is expected to put pen to paper in the coming days in a move that will undoubtedly strengthen the already formidable Kotoko backline.

Atinga was a key member of the Ghana team which won the 2017 WAFU Nations Cup on home soil.

The Porcupine Warriors are currently preparing for their CAF Confederation Cup second leg tie against CARA on February 21st in Congo.
