New Asante Kotoko coach Charles Kwabla Akunor has reiterated that "he'd have issues" with the club when players are signed without his knowledge.

Akunor, who joins after his last spell with their rivals Ashantigold has been aware of the role management members play in the arrivals of some players to the club.

At his unveiling on Wednesday, the 44-year-old affirmed he would want to play a key role in the players that arrive at the club.

“I embrace people that involve me in the signing of players and so if you buy a player without my knowledge, I’d have issues,” he declared.

“We’d give ourselves three months to assess every player and afterward we’d make decisions going forward,” he added. “It’s not going to always smooth but we can sail through together.”

C.K Akunor met the playing body at the Adako Jachie training grounds on Wednesday morning.
