Three referees from Uganda have arrived for Asante Kotoko's CAF Confederation Cup return leg match against Kenyan side Karionbangi Sharks on Saturday.

The trio touched down at the Kotoka International Airport on Wednesday afternoon.

They were met on arrival by the club's Deputy Accra Representative Nana Kwame Dankwah and flew out to Kumasi hours later.

The fourth referee and Match Commissioner are said to be on their way to the country.

Kotoko played out a 0-0 draw with Karionbangi Sharks last Saturday and are favourites to progress to the Group stage.
