As the new Ghana Premier League season approaches, Asante Kotoko has restructured their leadership role at the playing body by appointing goalkeeper Danlad Ibrahim as the new captain. The Ghanaian powerhouse announced the appointment ahead of the 2023/24 season, which will see Ibrahim taking over the captaincy from Richard Boadu, who left after the last season.
Ibrahim’s appointment is expected to provide a new level of leadership and guidance for the squad. As the captain, he will be expected to lead by example on and off the pitch, providing inspiration for his teammates and helping to guide the team to success.
The new captain will be supported by George Mfegue and Richmond Lamptey, who have been appointed as the deputy captains. The duo will work closely with Ibrahim to ensure that the team is well-led and motivated throughout the upcoming season.
Asante Kotoko’s decision to restructure their leadership team is a clear indication that the team is keen on making a strong start to the new season. The appointment of Ibrahim is expected to instill confidence in the team and drive them towards achieving their objectives.
Asante Kotoko’s first match of the season will be against Heart of Lions on Sunday at the Baba Yara sports stadium, where Ibrahim will lead his side onto the pitch for the first time as captain. Fans will be watching closely to see if he can produce a captain’s performance to inspire his teammates to victory.
