Asante Kotoko head coach Karim Zito has urged calm and focus ahead of the club’s upcoming Ghana Premier League clash against Heart of Lions, despite the looming CAF Confederation Cup playoff tie against Wydad Athletic Club (WAC).
Speaking to Akoma FM, Zito stressed that the Porcupine Warriors remain determined to qualify for the group stages of the CAF competition.
He, however, insisted his immediate priority lies in domestic football.
“Our target is to qualify for the group stages. In football, nothing is impossible, even though it will be difficult,” Zito said.
He, however, clarified his short-term focus: “I’m not thinking about WAC at the moment; my focus is on Heart of Lions.”
Kotoko face Heart of Lions this weekend before turning their attention to the first leg against Moroccan giants Wydad Athletic Club on October 18, with the return fixture scheduled for October 25 in Morocco.
