Kotoko jet out for Tanzania assignment
Asante Kotoko has left Accra to play a combined
side of Simba FC and Young Africans in a
commemorative match in Tanzania.

The club departed from the Kotoka International
Airport in Accra without their top scorer Ahmed
Toure who is in Egypt for a medical.

Head coach Maxwell Konadu’s strong 18-man squad
included veteran Stephen Oduro and in-form striker
Nathaniel Asamoah.

Rugged midfielder Yahaya Mohammed could not make
the trip due to injury.

The team will transit in Cairo for four hours
before landing in Dar-Es Salem.

The match will be played on Sunday 11 December at
11:00 GMT.

Kotoko last visited Tanzania in 2005 for
pre-season under veteran trainer EK Afranie where
they beat Simba FC 1-0 and drew 1-1 with Young
Africans.

The trip is to honour the 50th Independence
anniversary of the Eastern African country
