Kotoko have sent a goodwill message to Goalkeeper Felix Annan and midfielder Abdul Fatawu Safiu as they join the Black Stars team to prepare for the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations.

The duo departed with the Black Stars squad on Saturday to kick start groundworks for the upcoming tournament.

Annan and Fatawu are part of three local-based players named in the provisional 29-man squad.

With Annan already making the final squad for Egypt as part of the three selected goalkeepers, Safiu will be hoping to break into the team by putting up an impressive show at the team’s training tour in the UAE.

Both players deservedly earned invitations from Coach Kwesi Appiah after displaying a good performance in the Kotoko team throughout the CAF Confederation Cup and NC Special Cup competitions.
