Asante Kotoko, a powerhouse club in Ghana, stands to gain from FIFA’s goodwill after defender Danlad Ibrahim was called up to the Black Stars in the nick of time for the next World Cup in Qatar.
Jojo Wollacot and Richard Ofori, the Black Stars’ goalkeeping tandem, have been ruled out of the competition only seven days before the commencement of the mundial in Asia.

As expected, the sport’s international governing body announced the specifics of its club benefits plan, including the $209 million that has been allocated for the program.
According to FIFA’s projections, each player will get $10,000 for each day he stays with his national team at the World Cup.
Since this is Danlad Ibrahim’s first time playing in the World Cup, his presence will bring Asante Kotoko a daily income of $10,000.
Super Obondede, a well-known sports journalist from Light Fm, has responded by saying that the call-up of the Danlad Black Stars would net Asante Kotoko a minimum of $120,000.
