Speaking in a Happy FM interview, Fosu-Mensah said that though he has not followed the Ghana Premier League religiously, he is a huge fan of Kumasi Asante Kotoko.
This love, he says is rooted in his family which happens to be an Ashanti family.
“I support Asante Kotoko even though I haven’t followed Ghana football that much,”, he said on Happy Sports.
“Asante Kotoko is a tradition for the family. Hopefully, I will now follow some games in the Ghana Premier League.”
Whiles in the country, Fosu-Mensah would love to catch some actions of his beloved club which currently sits second on the Ghana Premier League table.
Kotoko are in a dog-chase with Hearts of Oak for the title with Hearts leading leafing them on goal difference.
Both clubs have fifty points each but Hearts are aheadhead courtesy a goal difference of three.
The next match for Kotoko will be a trip to Dawu where they will play an Inter Allies team that is finding it feet now.
