Asante Kotoko ordered to pay $36k in 6 days or face GFA’s wrath

Asante Kotoko have a deadline to pay 4 former players around $36,000 in the next 6 working days or face the wrath of the Ghana Football Association.

Asante Kotoko appealed against the decision of the Player Status Committee.

The club was given 7 working days to settle the players for which failing to do so will see them referred to the Disciplinary Committee for the necessary action to be taken.
