Ghanaian giants, Asante Kotoko, have announced granting James Akwasi Appiah permission to take up the Sudan national team coaching job.
The club in a statement on Wednesday said the former Ghana coach will be Sudan coach alongside keeping his technical director role with the Porcupine Warriors.
They also added that Appiah will go ahead and contest in the Ghana Football Association’s Executive Council elections.
The Sudanese Football Association appointed Akwasi Appiah as coach of the senior national men's football team on Wednesday, September 20 and was awaiting Kotoko’s permission to officially take up the job.
Appiah, 63, will lead the 1970 African champions for the next three years.
His last major coaching was as Ghana national team coach, where he had a second stint between 2017 and 2020.
In the last three years, Appiah has been attached to Kenpong Football Academy in a sporting director role.
