Asante Kotoko defender Evans Quao is on the verge of switching camp to newly promoted Elmina Sharks on a season-long loan, GHANASoccernet.com can confirm.

With the return of Abeiku Ainooson, the big centre back is tipped to be down the pecking order in the Porcupine Warriors set up.

The former Mumbai FC star joined the Red family last season from Medeama SC.

He is expected to complete his move in the coming weeks.
