Ex-Kotoko chief Mensah rules out return to football management

By Patrick Akoto

Ex-Asante Kotoko chief Herbert Mensah has ruled out a return to football management. 

The astute soccer administrator has been largely credited for bringing professionalism into the running of club football in the West African country.

He is fondly remembered by Kotoko faithfuls after presiding over a relatively fruitful period between 2001-2003.

Despite his inability to win any major trophies with the Porcupine Warriors, his expertise, know-how and proficient way of making the club an attractive brand endeared him to not only the club’s supporters but also to the envy of their arch-rivals Hearts of Oak.

But after calling time on football management over the past years, he says there is no turning back.

“I am done and not coming back to football,” Mensah said

“I have done my part and we live the rest for others to continue. I’m not sure about any future deals in football administration soon. I am over with it,”

Mensah also had stints with Hearts of Oak, King Faisal and AshantiGold before he bowed out of active football management
