“It is important that the playing material is up to scratch,†The Asante Kotoko CEO told FootballmadeinGhana.com.
“Kotoko should not be looking at competing [in the transfer market] only locally.
“We have to think about how do you play a team like Al Ahly and beat them, how do you play a team like TP Mazembe and beat them, how do you play a team like Zamalek and beat them as it used to be the case some years ago.
“We are miles apart from those teams as we speak. So you have to do massive top quality recruitment to be able to bridge the gap. And we need to do it.â€
