Former Asante Kotoko defender Patrick Yeboah says his former club have the best squad assembled by any club on the local scene.

The left full back who joined the Kumasi based side from Karela United last season was released by the club after agreeing to mutually terminate his contract.

Yeboah is close to joining Medeama SC but says that his former club have a lot of quality players in their fold but they will need more than that in order to perform well in Africa.

Speaking in an interview with Kumasi based Pure FM on Wednesday the player who confessed he still loves his firmer side says there will need to improve if they are to do well in Africa.

"The current squad of Asante Kotoko is the best in the country now. Winning Africa is not about the best players you have but there are other things that the team would need from the management. I believe with the support of the management, they can do well", Patrick Yeboah said.
