Asante Kotoko have reportedly reached out to FC Samartex 1996 head coach, Christopher Ennin, as a potential replacement Prosper Narteh Ogum.
A source close to Sefwinews.com has revealed that a member of Asante Kotoko’s Interim Management Committee (IMC) placed a call on Monday afternoon, April 21, 2025, to inquire about Ennin’s availability.
The confidential call, placed via telephone, sought to assess the availability and interest of Coach Ennin in taking over the technical leadership of the Porcupine Warriors should the need arise.
The conversation, described as preliminary but serious in tone, centered on Ennin’s willingness to make a switch to Kumasi Asante Kotoko.
Asante Kotoko has officially parted ways with head coach Prosper Narteh Ogum following disappointing results. The Porcupine Warriors suffered back-to-back defeats to Accra Lions (3-0) and Nations FC (2-0), which caused them to drop from the top of the league table to fourth place, now trailing leaders Bibiani Goldstars by six points.
FC Samartex Journey
Christopher Ennin, who was appointed as head coach by FC Samartex in December 2024, was entrusted with the responsibility of guiding the club through the remainder of the 2024/2025 season.
Under his leadership, Samartex have displayed a competitive edge and tactical discipline, making him a highly sought-after figure in the domestic football scene.
Since taking charge of FC Samartex in December 2024, Coach Christopher Ennin has led the team to 5 wins, 6 draws, and only 1 loss, with the club currently sitting 5th on the league table with 42 points.
It remains to be seen whether FC Samartex will entertain the idea of losing their head coach at such a crucial point in the season, or if Ennin himself would be tempted by the challenge and prestige of leading the Porcupine Warriors.
