David Duncan has lined up Tony Lokko as his assistant should he land the Asante Kotoko coaching job, MTNFootball.com has exclusively reported.

Lokko has been without a club since leaving Ghana Premier League side Berekum Chelsea at the end of last season.

He qualified Tema-based Amidaus Professionals to the Ghana Premier League and handled them on their debut season in the top-flight.

Duncan is the frontrunner to be named Kotoko coach following the club’s decision to ask head coach Mas-Ud Dramani to proceed on leave after a poor run of results.

But the board and management have been unable to confirm his appointment since the coaching position became vacant three weeks ago.
