Naby Keita’s agent, Charles Kouadio has taken a swipe at Asante Kotoko trainer Maxwell Konadu for sidelining his client despite being fit.
According to the agent, he is yet to understand why Keita has been sidelined in the ongoing season and is of the view he is the best striker in the Kotoko team.
He adds that Keita has been impressive at training after recovering from a minor injury and for that matter, does not think his striker should be sidelined.
This season, Kwame Poku, Ibrahim Osman and Evans Adomako have been the preferred options by Konadu in both Ghana Premier League and Caf Champions League.
Speaking to Kumasi based Otec FM, the agent said, “Naby Keita is fit and not injured but the coach has decided not to use him,”
“For now, he is still part of the Kotoko team so anytime he is called upon to help, he will play wholeheartedly.
“No one is begging anybody to use him [Keita]. He is a good striker and I can boldly tell you that none of the Kotoko attackers is better him so the right thing must be done,” he added.
Kotoko will face Great Olympics on Wednesday in the outstanding league game at the Accra Sports Stadium before they face Al Hilal Omdurman in the Caf Champions League first round first leg fixture.
