Ghanaian football giants Asante Kotoko are on the verge of finalizing the signing of Berekum Chelsea defender Patrick Asiedu during the current transfer window.

The Porcupine Warriors have been active in the transfer market and are expected to secure the services of the highly-regarded left-back.

The 21-year-old impressed with his stellar performances for Berekum Chelsea, who secured a third-place finish in the recently concluded Ghana Premier League season.

Asiedu’s exceptional displays have attracted the attention of Asante Kotoko and other clubs in the Ghana Premier League.

Reports indicate that Kotoko and Chelsea have reached an agreement for the defender's transfer during this window.

Asiedu is set to travel to Kumasi for his mandatory medical examination before signing his contract with Kotoko.

He will sign a three-year deal that will keep him with the former Ghana Premier League champions until 2027.

Kotoko are eager to improve their performance in the upcoming season after a disappointing campaign last term, where they finished sixth in the league standings.
