Kotoko have confirmed midfield dynamo Michael Akuffo is down with a ‘bout’ of malaria.

The 29-year-old has been absent from the team’s recent poor displays in the Ghanaian top-flight.

Akuffo missed Kotoko’s 3-1 drubbing at Liberty Professionals but assistant coach Michael Osei has revealed the intelligent midfielder has a ‘bout’ of malaria’.

“Michael is down with malaria. Since the Local Black Stars came back from the COSAFA Cup, he has not been well.”

The Porcupine Warriors could still be without their influential talisman ahead of their FA Cup clash against Ashantigold.
