Head coach of Asante Kotoko, Dr Prosper Narteh Ogum, has revealed that midfielder Fabio Gama and winger Isaac Oppong have begun training ahead of the Super two clash against Hearts of Oak.
Coach Ogum is hoping to have the service of these key players ready for the game.
Meanwhile, midfielder Mudasiru Salifu who missed the match against Accra Lions due to illness, is also expected to feature in the big game against the Phobians.
“Fabio Gama and Isaac Oppong have already commenced a special training recommended by the club’s medical team,” Ogum told Kickgh.com.
“We expect them to return to full-scale training in the coming days. Mudasiru Salifu wasn’t feeling well ahead of the Accra Lions game. We communicated with him to sit out for assessment.
“We hope all the players in the treatment room recover fully in time to join the team.”
Both picked up injuries in the early part of the 2021/22 league season.
The Porcupine Warriors will be facing bitter rivals Hearts of Oak come Sunday in Accra for their outstanding league match to climax at the end of the first round of matches.
Asante Kotoko, who currently sit top of the league with 6 points ahead of runner-up Bechem United will be hoping to increase the point gap, while the Phobians will be hoping to secure a win to increase their chance of a title chase as they sit 8th on the log.
