Asante Kotoko and Ashanti Gold set to represent Ghana in Africa


The Communication director of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Henry Asante Twum, has confirmed that the Kotoko and Ashgold are the two clubs that will represent Ghana on the continent next year.

This has put to rest any debate or uncertainty over Ghana’s flag bearers in the CAF Champions League and Confederation Cup.

“The Executive Council settled on the two clubs after the truncation of the 2019/20 Ghana Premier League season”.

Asante Twum was speaking moments after the official announcement that the current season has been abandoned.

“We will communicate the decision to the two clubs today [Wednesday].”

He added that;

“The runner-ups of the GFA Normalization Committee Special Competitions will be considered should any of the clubs decide not to play”.

Incidentally, Kotoko and Ashantigold also represented Ghana in the last edition of the CAF Champions League and Confederation Cup respectively.
