Asante Kotoko SC is set to name Abdul Ganiyu as the new captain for the club following the departure of Felix Annan from the club.
The acrobatic custodian defender was third to Annan and Gyamfi and he is set to be handed the captain’s arm band heading into the new era to mark his rise in the game.
The two-time African Champions recently parted ways with their captain after 10-years of service.
Ganiyu was impressive for Asante Kotoko last season despite the team’s failure to win the Ghana Premier league, placing second on the league log.
His impressive form last season gained him a call-up to the Black Stars on two separate assignments, featuring in AFCON qualifying game against South Africa in Johannesburg.
Abdul Ganiyu joined Asante Kotoko on a three-year deal in 2018 from fellow premiership outfit Karela United after a scintillating form that year.
