Asante Kotoko Communications and Brands Manager David Obeng Nyarko has disclosed the club owe their players two months’ salary arrears.
In an interview with Kumasi-based Sompa FM, Obeng Nyarko denied the purported four-months’ salary arrears, revealing players are owed two months instead.
“It is a two months’ salary arrears but we’ve started making payment and we are going to clear all arrears”
“To look at it, a strong institution like Kotoko owing players for two months, that is not the ideal situation but obviously we are making strides and we are paying them all. Kotoko’s wage bill in the month is roughly around GHC350,000 and we took it from GHC64-70,000 when we came” he said.
The defending league champions has been inconsistent in the domestic top-flight. They currently sit 5th position with 39 points after 26 matches into the season.
The Porcupine Warriors will host Aduana Stars in matchday 27 of the Ghana Premier League at the Baba Yara Stadium on Sunday.
