- Asante Kotoko’s dismal showing in the 2025 GHALCA Top Four tournament has left fans outraged, with one supporter calling the team’s performance “disgraceful” given the club’s financial investment.
- Kotoko lost all three matches — against Bibiani Gold Stars, Heart of Lions, and Accra Hearts of Oak — finishing bottom with zero points.
- The fan blamed head coach Karim Zito and pointed to Hearts of Oak’s resurgence under Didi Dramani as proof that leadership matters.
Asante Kotoko’s preseason campaign has ended in disappointment — and fans aren’t holding back.
The Porcupine Warriors crashed out of the 2025 GHALCA Top Four tournament without a single point, suffering defeats to Bibiani Gold Stars (2-1), Heart of Lions (1-0), and arch-rivals Accra Hearts of Oak (2-0). The losses have sparked outrage among supporters, many of whom feel the team’s performance doesn’t reflect the investment made ahead of the new season.
One passionate fan, speaking to Sporty FM, didn’t mince words. He slammed head coach Karim Zito for failing to maximize the squad’s potential and questioned the tactical direction of the team. With Hearts of Oak thriving under new manager Didi Dramani, the fan argued that Kotoko’s stagnation is a leadership issue — not a lack of talent.
Hearts, who ended their own campaign with a morale-boosting win over Kotoko, have shown signs of transformation since Dramani’s arrival. Meanwhile, Kotoko’s defensive lapses and lack of attacking cohesion have left fans wondering whether a managerial shake-up is overdue.
The GHALCA Top Four was meant to be a litmus test for the upcoming Ghana Premier League season. Instead, it’s become a wake-up call for Kotoko — and their supporters are demanding answers.
