Also in line for the job in contention are the current coach of Karela FC  Johnson Smith and  former coach of Eleven Wonders Enos Adepa, according to reports gathered by ghanaguardian.com

Konadu, a former player kotoko, won the 2013/14 league for the porcupines and sources have confirmed he has been in touch with the Kotoko hierarchy since his release as Black Star No. 3.

CK Akonnor parted ways with  Asante Kotoko fired weeks after leading them to secure CAF Champions League qualification.
