Asante Kotoko head coach Karim Zito has expressed his delight over the imminent return of striker Kwame Opoku to the team.
The 26-year-old forward has been sidelined since suffering an injury during Kotoko’s opening fixture of the 2025/26 Ghana Premier League season against Berekum Chelsea.
After several weeks of rehabilitation, Opoku has resumed full training and is expected to be available for selection when the Porcupine Warriors host Karela United on Sunday, November 2, at the Baba Yara Stadium.
Speaking to the club’s media ahead of the match, Zito highlighted Opoku’s importance to the squad, particularly in light of recent injury concerns among the forwards.
“When you look at the injury situation, it has mostly affected our attackers,” Zito said. “That’s why I’m very happy Kwame [Opoku] is coming back to join those who are available.”
Opoku’s return comes at a crucial time for Asante Kotoko, following the recent departure of striker Albert Amoah to Libyan side Al Ahly Benghazi.
Kick-off for Sunday’s encounter is scheduled for 3:00 p.m. GMT.
