Congolese defender Gilbani Ndongani Samba has revealed his eagerness to sign with Asante Kotoko when the Ghanaian club expressed interest in him. The Ghana Premier League giants officially announced the acquisition of the highly-regarded center-back on Thursday, July 11.

Reflecting on his move, Ndongani shared his excitement: “Kotoko is a big club, and I’m thrilled to be here,” he remarked. “When my manager informed me of Kotoko’s interest, I immediately instructed him to halt any discussions with other clubs so I could focus on coming here.”

The defender emphasized his commitment to the club: “I am committed to proving my quality on the pitch and helping the team win the league,” he stated in his first interview.

Ndongani becomes the fourth signing of Asante Kotoko in the off-season, joining new recruits Emmanuel Antwi, Esmat Hassabalbagi, and Youssef Yagoub. His determination to join Kotoko highlights his enthusiasm and dedication to contributing to the team’s success.
