Asante Kotoko captain Richmond Lamptey has sent a farewell message to goalkeeper Danlad Ibrahim following his departure from the club.

The former Ghana U17 goalkeeper was released by the club at the end of the 2023/24 season and is now free to join any team of his choice.

Ibrahim, who served as one of the captains at Kotoko, struggled for playing time last season, with Frederick Asare being the coach's preferred choice.

"It was nice having you as a teammate and friend. Good luck in your future endeavors," Lamptey wrote as he bid farewell to the goalkeeper.

The 2022 World Cup squad member began his career with the Reds, joining them as a teenager and spending most of his time developing through the lower ranks.

He is expected to secure a new club ahead of the 2024/25 season.

Meanwhile, Lamptey is one of the few players remaining after a massive clear-out in the squad.

Eighteen players have left the Porcupine Warriors in the last twenty-four hours.
