Arhin Duah for treatment in South Africa

Nana Arhin Duah, Kumasi Asante Kotoko's ace striker who has been out of action lately due to an injury will leave for South Africa on 28 March for a two-week medical check-up.

Arhin Duah's trip, which is being sponsored by Kotoko would facilitate the review of an operation he underwent last year. A release from the Interim Management Committee (IMC) and signed by Kwabena Sarpong Akosah, Press and Public Affairs Officer of Kotoko, said it will be the striker's second trip to South Africa since he broke a bone days before the Kotoko-WAC of Morocco Cup Winners cup final match in Kumasi last December.

The release said though some local orthopaedic surgeons say the review in South Africa was not necessary because the player's bone was fast healing on its management would not like to leave anything to chance. The trip will cost $5,000.
