Kumasi Asante Kotoko Sporting Club have officially announced the transfer of striker Albert Amoah to Libyan side Al-Ahly Benghazi.

The announcement of Amoah’s departure was made mere hours after Kotoko’s humiliating 5-1 loss to Moroccan side Wydad Athletic Club in Morocco in the CAF Confederation Cup.

Kotoko lost 6-1 on aggregate to Wydad with the loss spelling Kotoko’s failure to progress to the group stage of the continental championship.

However, the club’s quest to regain the league title and retain the FA Cup would be without Amoah in the immediate future as he joins the Libyan side after a year and half stay with Kotoko; he transferred to Kotoko from Accra Great Olympics.
