Ghana Premier League giants Asante Kotoko have secured the services of midfielder Richmond Lamptey on a three-year deal, according to growing reports in the local media.
According to reports trickling in the local media, the former West Africa Football Academy prodigy has completed a three-year move to the Porcupine Warriors pending mandatory medicals.
Asante Kotoko, record holders of the Ghanaian top-flight, endured a torrid campaign last season losing out on the league title to archenemy Hearts of Oak before eventually bowing out of the MTN FA Cup in the quarterfinals and are out to beef up their squad to lay an assault on the league crown, which has eluded them since 2012/13.
Despite the array of talent in the midfield department, the Porcupine Warriors are still in the market to reinforce the team with names such as Richard Boadu (Medeama) and Justice Blay (Medeama) as well as Seth Osei (Ashgold) all linked to Asante Kotoko.
Richmond Lamptey made 27 appearances notching three goals including a jaw dropping goalazo against Accra Hearts of Oak as well as three Nasco man-of-the-match awards to cap a decent performance at Inter Allies, who finished bottom of the 18-team league.
