Young players were poorly guided by senior players - Asante Kotoko coach Prosper Narteh Ogum

Published on: 19 June 2024

Asante Kotoko coach, Prosper Narteh Ogum has attributed their challenges to senior players failing to mentor young players.

The Porcupine Warriors had a horrible campaign in the just-ended 2023/24 Ghana Premier League season, finishing 6th on the league log with 49 points.

Reflecting on their campaign, Narteh Ogum blamed the senior players for a lack of harmony.

According to him, the senior players failed to mentor the young players which created an imbalance in the team.

"The senior players who were supposed to guide them [the young players] did not give them enough mentorship and I think that created imbalance in the team," he told the club's media.

"We did not also have harmony because of this lack of mentorship from the senior players," he added.

Following the conclusion of the season, Asante Kotoko have announced that they have parted ways with 11 players including captain, Ibrahim Danlad, Isaac Oppong and other players.
