Asante Kotoko has released eight players following the 2024/25 season as part of a major squad overhaul ahead of their CAF Confederation Cup campaign.
Among the notable exits is club captain Justice Blay, whose contract expired amid reports of disciplinary issues.
Midfielder Michael Kyei Dwamena also departs after three consistent seasons, while Nigerian striker Fernando Wisdom Bassey leaves after scoring just once in 16 appearances.
Daniel Adrian Adjetey, Kwasi Asante, Samuel Tenadu, and Sampson Eduku, all of whom joined the team mid-season, have been released due to their limited impact.
These exits reflect a broader restructuring effort aimed at building a stronger, more competitive team for the upcoming continental challenge.
Meanwhile, Kotoko is in talks to extend contracts for key players Frederick Asare, Andrews Ntim Manu, and Baba Yahaya.
In the transfer market, the club is pursuing talents like Hubert Gyau, Zakaria Fuseini, and Francis Acquah to bolster the squad.
Following their FA Cup victory over Golden Kick SC, Kotoko is determined to make a mark in Africa.
With a clear vision and renewed focus, the Porcupine Warriors are preparing for a new era driven by ambition and change.
