"It is never true that Songne Yacouba has signed any pre-contract with Orlando Pirates in South Africa. Songne Yacouba is at the sports hotel nursing his injury and he still remains a Kotoko Player," he said.

Jantuah also admonished the media to desist from trying to cause a rife between his client and Asante Kotoko.

"Those who are trying to create problems between Yacouba and Kotoko should stop because we are not happy with the way things are going,"

"Songne Yacouba was playing with injury throughout the African Confederation Cup campaign for Kotoko because of the love he has for the team.

"Songne Yacouba would only leave Kotoko when the offers that come are good and Kotoko is willing to let him leave the Club," he added.

Kotoko' CEO George Amoako, has also made clear Kotoko will go in search for a suitable replacement should the 26-year-old Burkinabe decide to depart the club.
