Asante Kotoko are looking to organize a friendly match in honour of midfielder Stephen Oduro.
The 29-year-oldââ¬â¢s contract with the champions expired last month.
Oduro spent a cumulative twelve years with the Porcupine Warriors during which period he has endeared himself to the clubââ¬â¢s supporters.
Majority of the clubââ¬â¢s fans were agitating for a new contract be offered the ex Real Tamale United player.
But the teamââ¬â¢s inability to assure the veteran play maker regular first team action meant his services would largely be redundant at Kotoko.
There were talks of a planned fully-paid coaching course for Oduro but the club has decided to organize a testimonial match in his honour instead.
ââ¬ÅStephen (Oduro) has been talked to and an understanding has been reached to a promise of a testimonial match for him,â⬠Kotokoââ¬â¢s Administrative Manager Ben Nti told Angel FM.
ââ¬ÅHis contract ended on October 1st and we are looking for the opportune time to organize a befitting send off for him.
ââ¬ÅWe donââ¬â¢t want to do things haphazardly, we want him to get the right treatment and that is what we are looking to do.ââ¬
