Asante Kotoko Sporting Club have announced the return of their former striker Kwame Poku on a two-and-a-half-year deal, pending medical and international transfer clearance.
The 27-year-old rejoins after a successful 2020/21 season with the club, during which he scored six goals and provided three assists in 16 matches. His performance led to a move to USM Alger in Algeria, followed by a stint with Moroccan side Olympique Khouribga.
Head Coach Prosper Narteh Ogum praised Poku’s development, highlighting the experience and skills he gained abroad.
”Kwame is a player who has grown tremendously since his first spell here. His time in Algeria and Morocco has sharpened his skills and added to his experience. He’s a proven goal scorer and creator, and I’m confident he will bring a lot of quality to our squad.” He said.
Poku expressed excitement about returning to a club he considers home and pledged to work hard for the team’s success: “It’s a great feeling to be back at Kotoko. This club has always felt like home to me, and I’m eager to contribute to the team’s success. The support from the fans has been incredible, even during my time away, and I’m ready to give everything on the pitch to make them proud.”
