During an exclusive interview on Citi TV’s Football Made in Ghana, Sowah-Odotei expressed the club’s immense satisfaction in having Ouattara leading the team.
“We are extremely delighted to have him in our team. Ouattara brings to board huge experience in management of football, huge experience understanding of the business of football and huge experience and how to collaborate with team owners with all levels of a football club.”
We are extremely happy with him and it is our hope that we will be able to maintain him for a very long time.”
