Ghana Premier League outfit Asante Kotoko have announced the acquisition of Francis Acquah on a three-year deal in the ongoing transfer window.

The 24-year-old joins the Porcupine Warriors from Bechem United, where he was a regular starter during his four-year stay at the Hunters and made 94 league appearances.

Acquah arrives in Kumasi to strengthen Asante Kotoko’s defensive options. Comfortable playing anywhere across the back line, he is a composed and an intelligent defender, known for his sharp reading of the game and precise passing out from the back.

“There were other clubs interested, but the stature of Asante Kotoko and the fact that we’ll be competing in the CAF Confederation Cup played a big role in my decision,” Acquah told the club's official website after signing the deal.

“I’ve always heard about the passion and support this club receives in continental football, and I’m eager to be part of it for as long as I’m here.”

Acquah is expected to make his debut for Asante Kotoko against their arch-rivals Accra Hearts of Oak in the 2025 President Cup scheduled for July 6, 2025.
