Former Asante Kotoko Communications Director Sarfo Duku believes Eric Tinkler can still guide the Porcupine Warriors to the Ghana Premier League title, but insists the players must improve their attitude and commitment. "It will be difficult for Eric Tinkler to win the league this season, considering the timing and injuries," Duku said. "However, if the players change their attitude, he can win it for Asante Kotoko," he added. Tinkler, who recently took charge of the record Ghana Premier League champions, has been tasked with rebuilding Kotoko’s title ambitions after a challenging period for the club. Kotoko will begin their 2026/27 Ghana Premier League campaign away from home against newly promoted Debibi United FC before hosting Hearts of Lions in their first home fixture.
