Nana Yaw Amponsah has said that the formation of the Asante Kotoko youth team will take off this month (January 2022).
In an attempt to shape the direction and adopt a new model, Asante Kotoko owner, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II has tasked the Board of Directors to establish a youth team and women’s team before their three-year mandate ends.
Nana Yaw Amponsah says, the youth team is the major key in every football team in the world and they are hoping to start it this month.
Nana Yaw Amponsah and his management which have a mandate that runs for three years with one already spent believe that setting the pace with the youth team and the women’s team will make Kotoko the first elite team in Ghana to run such a model.
The Asante Kotoko youth team in the past have produced players such as Francis Akwaffo, Gabriel Opoku Ware, Eric Nii Baah, Tony Yeboah among others.
