GPL: Asante Kotoko in Advanced Talks With Chris Baffour-Akoto for Head Coach Role

Ghana Premier League giants Asante Kotoko are reportedly in advanced negotiations with UK-born Ghanaian tactician Chris Baffour-Akoto over the club’s vacant head coach position.

The UEFA A Licence holder has emerged as one of the leading candidates for the role following his impressive work with Rospak FC, where he guided the side to a strong second-place finish during the 2024/25 Division One League campaign.

Baffour-Akoto has earned praise for his modern attacking philosophy and commitment to developing young players, qualities Kotoko are believed to view as central to the club’s rebuilding plans.

The Porcupine Warriors are seeking a fresh direction after an underwhelming season that fell short of expectations, with club officials convinced that Baffour-Akoto’s tactical ideas and progressive coaching methods could help restore the team’s competitiveness and dominance in Ghanaian football.

Sources close to the negotiations indicate discussions between both parties have progressed positively, although no official agreement has yet been announced.

Kotoko’s management are expected to make a final decision in the coming days as preparations intensify ahead of the 2026/27 season.
