Caf Champions League: Kotoko confident in Zachariassen ahead of Kano Pillars clash

Asante Kotoko chief executive officer George Amoako has expressed the club's delight with new head coach Kjetil Zachariassen ahead of their Caf Champions League showdown with Kano Pillars of Nigeria.

The Norwegian was handed the Porcupine Warriors job earlier this month, taking the place of Charles Akonnor, who has been re-assigned to a new role as technical director.

Kjetil's first task will be to help Kotoko overcome Pillars in a preliminary first round two-legged tie next month.
