Professional League Board (PLB) chairman Ashford Tetteh Oku is set to pocket Gh¢120,000 from Asante Kotoko following a court order.
This is due to the role he played for Kotoko to get the transfer fee for the Porcupines’ ex-player Kwame Bonsu from Esperance de Tunis.
Ashford Tetteh Oku took Kotoko to court following their reluctance to give him what his due him and the court has now given their verdict.
According to Oyerepa FM, the former Hearts of Oak management member has won his case against the Porcupines and will be paid Gh¢120,000 in one week. Failure to settle the debt in one week will see the Porcupines’ account frozen.
It will be recalled that Kwame Bonsu joined Tunisian side Esperance de Tunis in 2019 but Kotoko did not receive the transfer fee of the player due them.
Kotoko, therefore, engaged the services of Offside Consult, a football management consultancy firm that deals with everything football related to helping the club recover their locked up funds with the Tunisian side.
The Reds tried all tricks in the book to try and recover the transfer fee of the player but were not successful and therefore employed the former Hearts of Oak General Manager’s services to help recover the cash.
Asante Kotoko the central midfielder to the Tunisian outfit in 2019 after his excellent form for them in the CAF Confederations Cup group stage for a reported fee of $140,000.
