Their decision to block any move is to help keep the core of the Division One League side’s team intact to boost their chances of sealing qualification to the Premier League.

The uncompromising stance of Samartex will deal a big blow to the Nana Yaw Amponsah led Kotoko management who retained a solid interest in the player.

Benjamin Yorke is also a subject of interest from Medeama SC, another Premier League club.
