Kotoko Coach Ogum Expresses Concern Over Team’s Losing Streak Ahead of Crucial Match
Asante Kotoko’s head coach, Prosper Narteh Ogum, has openly shared his concerns about the club's recent struggles in the 2024/25 Ghana Premier League season. Kotoko, one of Ghana’s most celebrated teams, has recently hit a rough patch, failing to secure a victory in their last three matches, including consecutive losses in their latest outings. These setbacks have placed the Porcupine Warriors under pressure as they prepare for a critical Week 10 fixture against Bechem United.
In an interview with Kotoko’s media team, Coach Ogum revealed the sense of anxiety permeating the camp, admitting that both players and staff feel the weight of the team’s poor performance. “I’m worried, very concerned about it. The whole technical team and the players are worried, and no one is happy about this situation,” Ogum explained. He emphasized that the team had started the season on a positive note, making their recent struggles an unexpected and challenging turn.
Ogum acknowledged the disappointment of the fans, whose high hopes were fueled by Kotoko’s promising start to the season. “We all feel, especially me, the pain and emotions of the fans. They expected more from us, and we were delivering before things took a downturn,” he admitted. The fans' dedication and expectations have added to the pressure, as the team knows they need to deliver results to maintain their support.
Despite the challenges, Ogum expressed optimism, reassuring supporters that Kotoko is committed to overcoming this rough patch. He explained that the team is working diligently to regroup and strengthen their performance. “We want to assure them that we are putting the house together. We are regrouping, and we will ensure that we bounce back stronger and play beautifully,” Ogum stated, hoping to instill confidence in fans who continue to stand by the team.
The upcoming clash against Bechem United, scheduled for Sunday, November 10, is now a highly anticipated match as Kotoko aims to break their losing streak. This fixture presents an opportunity for the Porcupine Warriors to demonstrate resilience and a renewed fighting spirit on the field, with players and staff eager to restore confidence both within the team and among their supporters.
The match against Bechem United represents more than just a chance to earn three points; it is also an opportunity for Kotoko to rebuild momentum in a season that initially held promise. Coach Ogum’s words reflect the determination of a team aware of the need to turn things around swiftly and reassure their dedicated fan base.
Asante Kotoko supporters will be watching closely on Sunday, hopeful that their team will put recent setbacks behind them and emerge stronger. For Coach Ogum and his players, the upcoming game is a critical step in reclaiming their early-season form and reaffirming their commitment to compete at the highest level.
