Asante Kotoko head coach Prosper Narteh Ogum has acknowledged that the opening match against Karela United in the 2024/25 Ghana Premier League season will be a challenging contest.
Speaking to the media team of the Porcupine Warriors, Coach Ogum highlighted the need for thorough preparation after Karela United managed to take four points out of six in their encounters last season.
“We will start the season by going to Tamale and, as you said, last season they took four points out of the six, so the coming season I’m sure it’s going to be a very big game, especially in the first game. We need to be very prepared and make sure that we get there and get the job done,” Coach Ogum said.
Following a trophyless campaign last season, Asante Kotoko aims to secure silverware in the upcoming season.

The head coach of Asante Kotoko, Dr. Prosper Narteh Ogum, has revealed plans to promote some of the team’s youth players to the first team during the 2024/25 football season.
In an interview with the club's media team on Monday, August 5, Coach Ogum expressed confidence that some of the teenagers in the youth team could outperform current first-team players when given the opportunity.
"Basically, the aim of this project is to ensure that we can transition some of these players into the first team. We will register some of these boys in the system and as the league unfolds, we will let some of them have a feel of it. So, what we want to do is that we will look at them and some of the time we will ask some of them to come and join the first team and then train," Coach Ogum explained.
He continued, "When it is possible, we will give them the opportunity to play. I’m sure some of these players, if we give them the opportunity, will rock shoulders with some of the first-team players."
Following a trophy-less campaign last season, Asante Kotoko aims to secure at least one trophy by the end of the 2024/25 football season.
