The management of Asante Kotoko has called for an urgent meeting with the club’s technical team. This follows the team’s elimination from the 2025/26 Ghana FA Cup on Sunday.
The Porcupine Warriors lost to Aduana FC in a penalty shootout after a tense goalless draw at the Baba Yara Stadium. The defeat has raised serious concerns about the team’s inconsistent form in recent matches.
The Interim Management Committee (IMC), led by Nana Apinkrah Akwasi Awuah, has summoned head coach Abdul Karim Zito and his staff. The meeting is set for Monday, February 9, 2026.
Discussions will center on the FA Cup exit and the team’s inconsistent performances in the Ghana Premier League. The IMC chairman had earlier warned that poor results could lead to major changes.
This warning came before the matches against Aduana FC and rivals Hearts of Oak. The loss to Aduana, combined with a league defeat to Heart of Lions last week, means Kotoko has now lost two important games in a row. This has increased the pressure on the coaches and players.
Sources close to the club say management is very unhappy with recent results. Decisions from the meeting could lead to changes in tactics, team selection, or other steps to improve the situation.
The team has little time to recover. Their next match is the major Super Clash against Hearts of Oak on Sunday, February 15, 2026, at the same venue. The game is a chance for the team to make amends, but it will be played under intense scrutiny from both the club’s management and its fans.
