‎AshantiGold SC have appointed experienced coach Abdul Karim Zito as their new head coach as the club push for a return to the Ghana Premier League.

‎The Miners currently sit top of Division One League Zone Two with 40 points from 22 matches, holding a slender three-point advantage over Ebusua Dwarfs FC. With promotion firmly in sight, the club has turned to Zito to guide them through the decisive phase of the season.

‎Zito recently stepped down from his role at Asante Kotoko SC following the club’s elimination from the MTN FA Cup. Now, he takes on a fresh challenge with AshantiGold, aiming to maintain their momentum at the summit of the table.

‎The appointment sets up a potentially compelling storyline next season. Should Zito succeed in leading AshantiGold back to the top flight, he could find himself facing his former side Kotoko in the Ghana Premier League.

‎For now, the focus remains on securing promotion, and with an experienced hand at the helm, AshantiGold will believe they have strengthened their chances of completing the job.
