Asante Kotoko will screen its players for the deadly coronavirus disease when the team reconvene after a short break, management member Nana Gyambibi Coker has revealed.
The club broke camp in the aftermath of Ghana's suspension of all football competitions, including the Premier League, on Sunday in compliance to a directive by national president Nana Akufo-Addo.
The temporary ban on the league was to help fight the spread of the coronavirus, also known as Covid-19, which has infected six persons in the West African nation so far.
“The initial two weeks break has been reviewed to one week but we’ve made the players aware that they will be tested for Covid-19 anytime they are called to resume training,” Nana Coker told OTEC FM.
