Ghana's national team players and several footballers based abroad have been sending touching messages to giants Asante Kotoko after their bus was involved in an accident that claimed the life of one person on their delegation.
Turkey-based Black Stars captain Asamoah Gyan and his deputy Andre Ayew of West Ham have been leading the words of support for the Kumasi side.
The bus carrying Ghanaian soccer team Asante Kotoko was involved in an accident on Wednesday that also left several players and officials needing hospital treatment.
The Kumasi-based club were returning home from a Ghana Premier League game against Inter Allies in Accra when their bus struck a stationary vehicle.
Ghanaian footballers have taken to Twitter to send heart warming messages to the Kumasi-based club following the death and injuries.
Below are some of the messages from some of the players.
