‘Some of the supporters didn’t want me’ – Fatau Dauda highlights on his failed move to Kotoko

Former Black Stars number 1, Fatau Dauda has explained how his move to Asante Kotoko in the second phase of the season ended abruptly following a strong opposition from some section of the supporters

The 36 year old was in serious negotiations with the giants and nearly switched to Kumasi but the deal strangely couldn’t go through.

Breaking his silence on that failed move for the first time, the ex- AshantiGold shot-stopper has stated his deal was stopped due to a displeasure expressed by some section of the fans and added his presence will have been very important to the club.

“I’m an experienced goalkeeper and my presence could’ve done a lot for the team even in terms of serving as a motivation for some of the players. But, I think there was some displeasure from certain quarters of the supporters of the club. If you look at how important club fans are, you can’t underrate that,” he said

“So it ended up that we had to shelve the plans in order not to spark any unrest within the supporters.”

Fatau Dauda, 36, has been unattached since the he left Legon Cities in 2020
