South Africa/Ghana: Ghana Club Hunts Duncan

22 August 2008


Ghanaian coach David Duncan, who quit Free State Stars recently, is being lured back into the game at home.

Duncan is back in Ghana after his South African experience ended abruptly, but could be thrown back straight into the Ghanaian game, with Kessben FC looking for a coach.

KickOff.com understands from sources close to the Abrankesie club that they will make an offer to the former national Under-17 coach ahead of the new Ghanaian season.

Kessben parted ways with Dutchman Hans Van der Plyum and have since not replaced him. The club pulled the plugs on an attempt to sign Oti Akenteng from Heart of Lions over worries that the coach's commitment with the national women's U-17 side due to participate in the World Cup in New Zealand will affect his contribution at Abrankesie.

Duncan has insisted he has no interest in coaching one of the big two clubs in Ghana, that is, Hearts and Kotoko and Kessben are hoping that the small upwardly mobile reputation of their club will lure him back to the Ashanti Region after his spell with AshantiGold earlier.
