Dutch international Memphis Depay has expressed his admiration for Asante Kotoko, hinting at a potential future with the Ghanaian club.
The talented forward, who currently plies his trade at Corinthians, revealed his dreams during an interaction where he highlighted his desire to contribute to the club’s growth.
“I have to talk to Otumfuo, the King. Maybe if I keep playing, I will play for Kotoko one day,” Depay remarked, showcasing his respect for the club’s heritage and the Ashanti Kingdom’s influence in Ghana.
Depay is not only contemplating a personal connection with the club but also brainstorming innovative ways to leave a tangible legacy.
He shared plans to assist Kotoko in improving its infrastructure, particularly with a state-of-the-art training pitch, which he believes will bolster the team’s development and attract top talent.
Moreover, Depay disclosed efforts to arrange a high-profile friendly fixture between his current club, Corinthians, and Asante Kotoko.
This initiative could provide the Ghanaian side with international exposure and strengthen ties between the two football institutions.
The forward’s passion for Kotoko aligns with his broader commitment to supporting African football, having often celebrated his roots and contributed to various initiatives on the continent.
