A top management member at Kotoko tell the nation’s finest soccer website Ghanasoccernet.com that it is 90% done deal for the Finnish to continue his job waiting for him to only append his signature to the deal.
Polack joined Asante Kotoko after ten matches in the 2016/17 Ghana Premier League season after Croatian trainer Zdravko Lugarosic was booted out following poor results.
