The management of Kumasi Asante Kotoko has told David Duncan point blank that he should ‘forget’ about returning to the bench of the team.

The management of the club met the former AshantiGold coach to negotiate an agreement to part ways after he was asked to step aside in March this year.

According to Sportscrusader.com sources, Coach Duncan who has eight months left on his contract, was offered five months salary as compensation to leave the club by the management.

David Duncan rejected the offer and gave them two options: ‘reinstate me as the head coach or pay me my monthly salary’ until my contract expires.

Management, not mincing words told him to forget about sitting on the bench for the rest of the season. The meeting ended without an agreement.

There will be subsequent meetings, but it is unlikely both parties will reach an agreement anytime soon.
