Ex-Medeama coach Carlos Roberto Paullete has exclusively told GHANAsoccernet.com heââ¬â¢s been contacted for the Asante Kotoko job.
The Peruvian claims heââ¬â¢s been approached by top officials of the club to replace Mas-Ud Dramani.
ââ¬ÅSome top Kotoko officials have called me twice to take up the job,â⬠he told GHANAsoccernet.com
ââ¬ÅAnd so I am waiting for them as we speak. It will be great honour to return to Ghana and manage one of the biggest traditions in Africa.
ââ¬ÅIt will be a dream come true for me. Hopefully they will get back to me so I can take the offer.ââ¬
However the claim by the former South End United trainer is in sharp contrast with Kotokoââ¬â¢s official position of not engaging a foreign coach.
The Porcupine Warriors have ruled out signing an expatriate as pressure mounts on the management team to find Dramaniââ¬â¢s successor.
Ex-Hearts trainer David Duncan was initially tipped for the role but that move has been put on ice with reports suggesting heââ¬â¢s not favoured by the clubââ¬â¢s Life Patron Otumfuo Osei Tutu 11.
The former Ashantigold trainer seems to have carved an irreparable damage on his association with Kotoko following alleged unsavory comments he madeà against the club during his spells at Ashantigold and Hearts.
