Newly appointed Assistant coach of Asante Kotoko, Akakpo Patron, will begin his first official duties today.

The former Assistant at WAFA was announced by the club on Monday as Coach Steven Polack's deputy ahead of the new season and will formally be part of this afternoon's training session at the Adako Jachie training grounds.

Though the highly-rated coach has already met his boss and a few of his colleagues, he is expected to be officially introduced to the rest of the technical team and the playing body today.
