Asante Kotoko head coach, Dr. Prosper Narteh Ogum, has commended striker Kwame Opoku for his smooth reintegration into the team following his return to the club.<\/p>\n
Opoku marked his comeback with a goal on his debut, helping Kotoko secure a 2-0 win over Bibiani Gold Stars at the Baba Yara Stadium. In a post-match interview, Dr. Ogum praised Opoku\u2019s natural talent and ability to quickly bond with his teammates. <\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m not surprised because in terms of natural talent, he has it already, and he\u2019s been able to now use this natural talent to integrate himself into the team,<\/p>\n
\u201d Dr. Ogum stated. \u201cHe\u2019s bonded very well, and I think it\u2019s good for us.\u201dOpoku\u2019s goal against Bibiani Gold Stars was his first since rejoining Kotoko after a two-year absence.<\/p>\n
He previously played for the club during the 2020-21 season, scoring seven goals in 16 Ghana Premier League appearances.<\/p>\n
With Opoku\u2019s return and his immediate impact, Kotoko has risen to second place in the league standings, signaling a promising future for the team.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
