Eric Bekoe issues Asante Kotoko warning

Newly signed Berekum Chelsea striker Eric Bekoe says he will show no sympathy when playing against Asante Kotoko.

The 25-year-old inked a two-year deal on Tuesday to become Chelsea’s big name signing this off-season.


Bekoe’s move follows a botched attempt to rejoin the Porcupine Warriors following the termination of his contract with Egyptian club Petroject.


And despite maintaining his love and admiration for Kotoko upon joining Chelsea, the ex Heart of Lions hitman insists he will work assiduously to the satisfaction of his new employers even if it takes punishing his boyhood club.

“When it comes to my work, I know no sympathy. I have been paid to work and therefore there is no room to play it soft against any side including Kotoko,” he told Kumasi-based Angel FM.


“I have always scored against Kotoko whenever I play against them and I think that trend will continue to make sure the investments being made in me by Chelsea is well rewarded.


“My relationship with Kotoko for now will be on a professional basis since I am now with Chelsea but there is no doubt whatsoever that I am and will always remain a Kotoko supporter but for now I am focused on helping Chelsea beat any team.”
