Ghanaian giants Kotoko are confident they thrive without Ivorian Ahmed Toure as the striker leaves the club next season.
Toure is set to join Serbian giants Partizan Belgrade next season following an impressive six-month stint with the Porcupine Warriors.
His attacking flair and efficiency catapulted the club to a second-place finish in the top-flight.
Depsite the striker’s influence on the squad, Kotoko coach Bogdan Korak says the Toure will be adequately replaced by equally competent strikers.
“He has been fantastic for us but we’ll find his replacement when he join the exodus bandwagon,” Korak said.
“This is a club and so we shouldn’t struggle to find his replacement and others when they decide to finally move to abroad.
“Kotoko are making move in the off-season to sign some top player ahead of the start of the new season.”
