Newly appointed Asante Kotoko Technical Director and interim head coach, Karim Zito, has vowed to establish a clear football philosophy for the club, something he believes has been lacking.
Taking over from Prosper Narteh Ogum, Zito steps into the role with a wealth of experience and a reputation for tactical intelligence. With six matches left in the 2024/25 Ghana Premier League season, Kotoko sits fourth on the table, six points behind leaders Bibiani Gold Stars.
Despite the pressure, Zito at his unveiling says he will build one for the Porcupines.
“I’m going to develop a philosophy for the club because they don’t have one,” Zito stated. “At Dreams, I built one, and it’s still being used. I want to do the same at Kotoko, so that no matter who comes next, there’s a structure in place.”
Zito, a former Kotoko player and coach, brings deep familiarity with the club’s culture. His impressive CV includes guiding Ghana’s U-20 team to the 2021 AFCON title and leading Dreams FC to the CAF Confederation Cup semi-finals.
Now back with the Porcupine Warriors, he is expected to steady the ship and possibly push for silverware, all while laying a foundation for long-term identity and success.
