Amos Frimpong, a former Asante Kotoko captain, believes Prosper Narteh Ogum’s second term at the club would be a success.
Ogum led the Porcupines to their 24th Premier League title in the 2021/22 season but resigned before the start of the next season.
In an interview with Citi Sports, Amos Frimpong stated that the Black Galaxies Assistant Coach would do better than he did in his last term since he has a wealth of knowledge with him.
“The second coming of Prosper Narteh Ogum will be a good thing for Kumasi Asante Kotoko because in his first coming, he did not have a lot of experience but he still managed to win the Premier League title.”
“Coming back again, I am pretty sure he has gathered a lot of experience. This time around he is going to work harder than the first time and also wins a lot of trophies for the club.”
“A lot will be expected from him this time around, most of the players he worked with in his first stint are not there, so he’s going to work with different players this time around.”
“This will be a very good challenge for him, and I think the experience he has also gathered at the national side [Black Galaxies], will help him.”
“With all this, I think he is going to guide Asante Kotoko to more trophies.”
After a one-year hiatus, Ogum’s work brings him back to the club.
Despite leading the team to its first Ghana Premier League victory in eight years, he left following the 2021-22 season.
Burkinabe manager Seydou Zerbo was recruited as his replacement and took leadership of the team in three significant tournaments, including the CAF Champions League and the MTN FA Cup.
Zerbo, on the other hand, was dismissed in the midst of last season following a defeat to Medeama SC at Kumasi’s Baba Yara Stadium.
Abdul Gazale, the club’s youth coach, was charged with temporarily leading the squad and guided them to a fourth-place finish in the 20222/23 season.
The former WAFA president is expected to oversee the club’s recruiting and pre-season training as they strive for a better performance in the forthcoming season, which begins on September 15.
