Ghana Premier League giants Asante Kotoko have appointed Burkinabe Seydou Zebro as the club’s new coach.

The former Burkina Faso international’s last job was the handling of the Stallions at the 2020 CHAN tournament in Cameroon.

Zebro begun his coaching career in the 2013-14 season when he was in charge of Rail Club du Kadiogo.

He later coached Bankuy Sports from 2014 to 2016 before heading to SONABEL and giants ASFA Yennenga.

His first game will be on Tuesday against Al Hilal Omdurman as part of preparations for the 2022/23 CAF Champions League which is scheduled to commence in September.

The match was announced by Al Hilal Omdurman on their social media pages and will be expected to be followed by a pre-season tour in Turkey.
