"We want him but we need to sit down and talk. Until then, Kotoko is a team and has to take certain decisions".
"We left him out of the Hearts match because we felt he was not mentally focused".
Other than than, he is a good player and he a Kotoko player and we want him here but we need to talk to his agent and settle all issues before he can come back to the team.”
