For second time in a row, goalkeeper Felix Annan has been named Asante Kotokos's Player of the Month award for April.

He beat competition from midfielder, Jackson Owusu, Emmanuel Gyamfi and striker Frederick Boateng.

Annan managed two clean sheets; made more than three high profile saves in seven matches.

He was the first recipient of the award-sponsored by Forms Capital-for the month of March.

"I am very happy to be winning the award for the second consecutive time, and I dedicate it to the other three players I competed with and the entire team," Annan said.

"Each one of my competitors deserved the award.

"Football is a team sport and as a goalkeeper, I start our attacks and is also the last line of defense. We attack as a group and defend as a group, and there is no doubt that I couldn't have made most of my saves had it not been for how well we defended. It is for all of us, and not just me."
