The trio have safely touched down in the Gulf region to team up with their colleagues for the pre-season tour ahead of the start of 2021/22 campaign
Asante Kotoko deputy captain and goalkeeper Razak Abalora has safely touched down in Dubai to join his teammates for the pre-season tour.
The 26-year-old together with new signings Richmond Lamptey and Joseph Amoako who joined from Inter Allies and Young Red Bulls Academy respectively could not join the club’s first contingent that left the country on Thursday due to some issues of paperwork.
However, they left the Kotoka International airport on Friday and safely arrived in Dubai early hours of Saturday to join their teammates.
However, there are still five players left behind who are expected to also travel on Saturday evening.
They include former Berekum Chelsea captain Stephen Amankonah who signed a three-year deal with the club few days ago. The club is expected to officially announce his acquisition before he joins his new teammates in Dubai.
The others include strikers Solomon Sarfo Taylor and Andy Kumi Francis as well as Samuel Boateng and Augustine Agyapong.
Kotoko are expected to spend two weeks in the Gulf region to fine tune before they return for the commencement of 2021/22 Ghana Premier League season.
Their first game of the season will be an away trip to Dawu where they will lock horns with Dreams FC before they host Bechem United at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium a week later.
The game against Bechem will be Kotoko’s first ever game at the venue for almost two years since the facility was closed down temporarily for renovations and was only opened a fortnight ago by the minister of Youth and Sports Ussif Mustapha.
