In a related development, Patrick Razak’s legal adviser, Lawyer Francis Polley has confirmed Asante Kotoko interest in the player.

According to him, Patrick Razak still has a contract with Hearts of Oak but they have spoken to some Kotoko officials about his services.

“Razak still has contract with Hearts of Oak and we respect it. But I won’t disclose the date of expiration of his contract. Hearts has given us an offer for contract renewal and we are considering it”.

“Patrick Razak’s agent has traveled outside and we will decide when she arrives”.

“Some Kotoko officials have spoken to us unofficially and have requested for the service of PR. Patrick Razak is still training with Hearts” Lawyer Francis Polley told Kessben FM
