‘Experienced’ Karim Zito can deliver success in Africa – Kotoko PRO

Karim Zito

Asante Kotoko Communications Director, Samuel Sarfo Duku, has expressed confidence in head coach Karim Zito ahead of the club’s CAF Confederation Cup campaign.

Zito, who previously managed the Black Satellites and Dreams FC, was confirmed as Kotoko’s substantive head coach after the 2024/25 season.

He replaced Prosper Narteh Ogum late in the campaign and guided the Porcupine Warriors to FA Cup glory, defeating Golden Kick FC at the University of Ghana Sports Stadium.

Having steered Dreams FC to the semifinals of the Confederation Cup during their debut appearance, Zito’s track record has drawn admiration from Kotoko’s leadership.

“Karim Zito is an experienced manager, and if he needed any assistance, I am sure he would have tabled it before management. With his experience and what he did with Dreams FC, we as a club have no doubt that he will guide us to where we want to be in our Africa campaign,” Duku said in an interview with Asempa FM’s Ultimate Sports Show.

Kotoko will face Nigeria’s Kwara United in the preliminary round, hosting the first leg at the Accra Sports Stadium between September 19 and 21 before travelling to Ilorin for the return fixture from September 26 to 28.
