Kumasi Asante Kotoko have been handed a huge relief as their number one goalkeeper and club captain Felix Annan has returned to training.

The goalkeeper was injured late into Kotoko's 1-1 drawn game against Berekum Chelsea in the Ghana Premier League matchday two clash.

He collided with Berekum Chelsea striker Stephen Sarfo in the 87th minute of the game and had to be stretchered off for his understudy Kwame Baah to keep the post.

He has since the injury been on rehabilitation but Annan has stepped up his return with training and it will come as no surprise if he starts playing soon for Kotoko.

If all goes to plan it will be no surprise if Felix Annan returns to the Kotoko matchday squad against Great Olympics on Thursday in the outstanding league game in Accra.

Kotoko will host Sudanese side Al Hilal in the first leg of the CAF Champions League knock out stage on Wednesday, December 23, 2020, and Annan will be hoping to play a part.
