Ghana Premier League champions, Kumasi Asante Kotoko have appointed Burkinabè trainer Seydou Zerbo as the new substantive Coach.

Zerbo  has signed a one year deal with the Porcupine Warriors with an option for a further year.

He replaces Prosper Narteh Ogum who tendered his resignation from the Reds last week.

The former WAFA Coach’s decision came as a shock to the Ghanaian football fraternity following his outfit’s magnificent feat last season .

Kotoko are currently in Khartoum for  preseason ahead of their CAF Champions league preliminary stage clash with Rc Kadiogo of Burkina Faso.
