Asante Kotoko has announced the sacking of head coach Prosper Narteh Ogum.
A club statement released on Monday, April 21, 2025, said the "decision was reached following constructive discussions between both parties, with a shared understanding that it is in the best interest of the club at this time."
Ogum’s sacking follows Sunday's 2-0 loss to Nations F.C. in the Ghana Premier League.
That defeat was the second in a row for Ogum's Kotoko, who are also winless in four league matches.
Confidence in Ogum hit an all time low after Sunday's loss left Kotoko in fourth place with 47 points, six behind league leaders, Bibiani Gold Stars.

Nations F.C's win on Sunday was their second of the season against the Porcupine Warriors as they completed the double over Kotoko
The current run is the second of its kind for Kotoko this season. From October 27, 2024 to November 11, 2024, Kotoko lost four of five league matches, with the only respite being a 0-0 draw at newly promoted side, Basake Holy Stars.
The run included a defeat to Legon Cities, who were bottom of the league at the time.
Ogum returned to Kotoko in July 2023 for a second stint, guiding Kotoko to a lowly sixth place with 49 points, twelve fewer than eventually champions F.C. Samarttex 1996.
In the second season, Ogum who won the league with Asante Kotoko in 2022, leaves the club after thirteen wins, eight defeats and seven losses.
"We urge our supporters to remain calm and continue to support the club during this transition. Further updates will be communicated in due course," the club statement concluded.
