He is set to join his teammates in Dubai as coach Prosper Narteh Ogum puts his charges through their paces ahead of the 2021-2022 Ghana Premier League.
The 21-year-old enterprsing attacker mustered eleven goals in 28 appearances for Berekum Chelsea in the 2020/21 Ghana Premier League season.
He also notched four times for the Bibiries in the MTN FA Cup competition, propelling them to the semi-finals before losing out to Obuasi-based outfit Ashgold.
Amankona was loaned out to Hungarian side MTK Budapest in 2019 but failed to sign on a permanent basis due to contractual disagreement between both clubs.
Meanwhile, Asante Kotoko, record holders of the Ghana Premier League will play Al Hilal United on Thursday as the team intensifies its preparations for the upcoming campaign.
