Asante Kotoko have confirmed their full 23-man squad for Sunday’s MTN FA Cup final against Golden Kick SC, set to take place at the University of Ghana Sports Stadium on June 16 at 5:00 PM GMT.
With the 2024/25 season drawing to a close, the Porcupine Warriors are aiming to cap off the campaign with silverware and secure qualification for the 2025/26 CAF Confederation Cup. A win on Sunday would not only deliver the prestigious FA Cup title but also mark a return to continental football—an objective head coach Abdul Karim Zito has emphasized as central to the club's ambitions.
Though Kotoko enter the final as favourites, they face a Golden Kick side that has upset top-tier clubs like Karela United and Hearts of Oak on their remarkable cup run. Zito and his team are preparing for a determined underdog looking to complete a historic fairy-tale finish.
The 23-man roster includes a mix of seasoned performers and promising talents, offering tactical flexibility and squad depth. Defensively, the squad boasts experience in Patrick Ansu and Michael Sefa, complemented by the energy and dynamism of Samba Oneil and Lord Amoah.
In midfield, Andrews Ntim Manu will be tasked with shielding the backline, while Michael Kyei Dwamena, Baba Yahaya, and Emmanuel Antwi are expected to drive the team’s attacking transitions. The inclusion of Justice Blay adds leadership and defensive stability in the middle of the park.
Up front, Kwame Opoku will likely lead the line, bringing experience, power, and a proven eye for goal. He is supported by dangerous attacking options in Sampson Eduku, Bassey Wisdom, Elvis Kyei Baffour, and Saaka Dauda—each capable of delivering game-changing moments.
