Asante Kotoko wins Esperance-linked court case against former Ghana international Clottey

An Accra High Court has ruled against former Ghana international Emmanuel Clottey, who had dragged Asante Kotoko to court in connection with a contractual breach against Tunisian side Esperance in 2015.

Found guilty of wrongly joining the Porcupine Warriors, the striker copped a Fifa fine of $180,000 (€163,891.9) five years ago, which the Porcupine Warriors were jointly held liable for.

He then dragged Kotoko to court, requesting the club pay the fine, and wanted Kotoko to pay him salaries and allowances he would have received while being frozen out of football by Fifa.
