Hendricks Completes Ashgold Move

Kumasi Asante and Kotoko and Ashanti gold are reported to have concluded transfer talks over defender Joseph Hendricks.

Contrary to previous reports that Hendricks would be swapped for Ash gold central defender, Kenneth Ababio,

Joy sports investigations reveal that different transfer fees were agreed for both players.

Kotoko have thus successfully signed on Kennneth Ababio and traded the ex-captain who fell out of favour with the clubs? top hierarchy.

Hendricks has reportedly commenced training with Ashanti Gold and could be available for selection when the league resumes this weekend.

The management of Asante Kotoko stripped Hendricks of his captaincy in March, replacing him with his central defensive partner Issah Ahmed.

Hendricks had captained the side for the past three seasons and was only ousted from his position after Kotoko?s aborted training tour to Burkina Faso.

He was accused of failing to bring his colleagues in line during the seven-day tour.
