Former Asante Kotoko coach Polack threatens court action against club

Ghana Premier League side Asante Kotoko risk facing legal action over their failure to compensate former coach Steven Polack for his involvement in a car crash during his time with the club in 2017.

While at the helm of affairs, the Englishman and the rest of the Porcupine Warriors squad suffered an accident on their way back to Kumasi from Accra following a league encounter with Inter Allies.

The incident claimed the life of equipment officer Thomas Obeng Asare while several others, including the head coach, suffered varying degrees of injuries.

"This will be the first time taking legal action against my employer and sometimes in life you have to do and I felt something has to be done,” Polack, who first coached Berekum Chelsea before moving on to Kotoko, has told Asempa FM.
