FC Samartex head coach Nurudeen Amadu says he is hoping to achieve the feats of Karim Zito and Evans Adotey as his side prepares for their first appearance on the continental stage.
Zito and Adotey guided Dreams FC and Medeama SC to the group stage of the CAF Confederation Cup and CAF Champions League in their first attempts.
Having won the Ghana Premier League at the end of the 2023/24 season, Amadu will be hoping his team can take a cue from the performances of Medeama and more so Dreams, who reached the semis of the Confederation Cup.
"It's a privilege and I take inspiration from any of them like [Karim] Zito, [Evans] Adotey. Medeama as a club what they have been able to do, we are all proud of them," he said.
"Since it's our debut, we are also trying to go far, trying to do our best. It's not going to be easy. The technical team, the playing body, the management and the investors, are all motivated to carry the team to a different level."
Samartex will face Cameroon's Victoria United in the first round of the preliminary stage this month before setting sight on the next target.
