Former Asante Kotoko striker Amed Simba Toure has expressed his optimism about the future of the club following the recent departure of head coach Dr. Prosper Narteh Ogum.
In a post shared on Facebook, Toure wrote, “Am very happy because very soon fabulous will comeback strongly,” signaling his belief that the Porcupine Warriors are on the path to recovery after a turbulent spell.
His comment was attached to a tribute graphic bidding farewell to Prosper Narteh Ogum, who was recently relieved of his duties after a disappointing run of form in the Ghana Premier League.
Ogum, who led Kotoko to the league title in the 2021/22 season, returned for a second stint but struggled to replicate that success, prompting the club to part ways with him.
Toure’s message comes at a time when fans are hopeful that the appointment of Abdul-Karim Zito as interim head coach will reignite Kotoko’s campaign, as the club chases a strong finish to the season with six games remaining.
The former Burkina Faso international remains a fan-favorite at Kotoko and his encouragement could be a morale booster for the club’s faithful, many of whom are looking forward to a turnaround under new leadership.
