Asante Kotoko Communication Director, Sarfo Duku, has confirmed that the club is yet to receive the transfer fee for Albert Amoah’s move to Libyan side Al Ahly Benghazi.
It has been a month since Amoah left Kotoko for a reported fee of over $200,000 and pocketed a $200,000 signing-on fee.
He is expected to earn a monthly salary of $20,000 in his first season, which will increase to $25,000 in his second year.
Despite the agreed transfer amount not yet reflecting in Kotoko’s accounts, Sarfo Duku told Luv FM that there is constant communication between Kotoko’s IMC Chairman, Nana Apinkra Akwasi Awua, and officials of Al Ahly Benghazi.
“I wouldn’t want to go deeply, but all that I can say is that Kotoko has a transfer agreement with Al Benghazi in respect of a former striker, Albert Amoah.
“Even though the agreed transfer amount is yet to hit the accounts of Kotoko, I can confirm to you that the IMC chairman is in constant touch with officials of Al Benghazi. Obviously, the amount will be in,” he said.
Sarfo Duku declined to discuss the full details of the agreement due to contractual constraints but assured supporters that there is no cause for concern.
“I can’t go into the merits of the agreement because of some contractual issues. Trust me, as both clubs are governed by the rules of the game, I do not think that anything can happen.”
