Asante Kotoko head coach, Prosper Nartey Ogum, has likened Kwame Opoku’s goal-scoring instincts to that of Cameroonian forward, Frank Etouga Mbella.<\/p>\n
Ogum’s praise for Opoku comes after the striker scored a brace in Kotoko’s 4-1 thrashing of Vision FC in matchday 17 of the Ghana Premier League.<\/p>\n
Speaking to the media after the game, Ogum revealed that Opoku reminds him of Mbella, who shone under his guidance during the 2021\/22 season, helping Kotoko secure the Premier League title. “Yes, he is a photocopy of him, a replica in terms of goal-scoring. Mbella is a killer, and Opoku has those instincts. He knows where he is in front of the goal,” Ogum said.<\/p>\n
Since joining Kotoko, Opoku has scored four goals in the league, leaving him five goals behind top scorer Faisal Chawetey.<\/p>\n
With his current form, Opoku will be aiming to maintain his starting role and help win his first league title with Kotoko this season.<\/p>\n
Kotoko’s next challenge comes in matchday 18 of the Ghana Premier League, as they face Karela United at the Baba Yara Stadium.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
