Ghanaian giants Asante Kotoko have announced the substantive appointment of Abdul Karim Zito as head coach for the next two years.
The club confirmed the appointment of the experienced tactician in an official notice on Sunday, July 20.
“We are pleased to confirm the appointment of Abdul Karim Zito Kabutey as our head coach for the next two years,” Asante Kotoko shared in a post on X.
Abdul Karim Zito is set to continue the role after serving as interim head coach since April.
Kotoko, on April 22, 2025, appointed the tactician as the club’s new Technical Director and assigned him to take charge of the first team following the sacking of former coach Prosper Narteh Ogum.
It is unclear if Coach Abdul Karim Zito retains his role as Technical Director or the club will make another appointment in the coming days.
The former Dreams FC boss led Kotoko to win the MTN FA Cup in the 2024/25 football season and also guided the Porcupine Warriors to beat Hearts of Oak to win the 2025 President’s Cup.
He will be expected to bring more success to the Kumasi-based club in the coming days.
