The reason Asante Kotoko postponed their pre-season tour of Turkey

Asante Kotoko, the reigning champions of the Ghana Premier League, have delayed their preseason trip to Turkey.

The Reds were supposed to leave Ghana on August 14, 2020, but the journey has been postponed because of issues with visas.

In a statement released on Monday, August 15, the club announced that a new traveling date for the tour “will be communicated soon.”

Kotoko had scheduled a 15-day tour which was due to begin on August 15 and end on August 30, 2022.

In place of the cancelled trip, the Porcupines will play a friendly game against Panthers FC today.

Asante Kotoko won the 2021/2022 Ghana Premier League, finishing 11 points ahead of second place Bechem United.

The Porcupines, following the triumph, will represent Ghana in the 2022/2023 CAF Champions League where they will face Burkinabe side, Rail Club de Kadiogo in the preliminary round.
