Asante Kotoko have faced another setback as they try to attend to midfielder Richard Senanu’s injury.

Richard Senanu who has been injured for months now was scheduled to fly to Germany for an ACL reconstruction and post-surgery rehabilitation but the German embassy of Ghana declined Asante Kotoko’s application for Visa.

“It is true that the German Embassy has refused Senanu Visa to aid him to go under the knife which is a surprise to the management,” Nana Kwame Dankwah told Oyerepa FM

“We provided every evidence to that effect to the extent of purchasing his ticket which he should have left Ghana on the 22nd of June. We will appeal to the embassy so he gets his entry Visa because the hospital in Germany is also intervening.

“We have paid for all expenses for the trip including our medical rep that will be going with him as well as where he will be going for rehabilitation, so it’s never true that we didn’t do enough” he added

Richard Senanu is scheduled to undergo surgery at the Sudstadt Clinic in Rostock, Germany, on Monday, June 24, 2019, the Kotoko Medical Team has confirmed.

The Kotoko midfielder suffered an Anterior Cruciate Ligament of the knee at the Baba Yara Stadium in Kumasi in Kotoko’s 2-1 win over Zambia giants ZESCO United in a Group C game of the CAF Confederation Cup.

The defensive midfielder took a pass from Maxwell Baakoh and was trying to turn his marker when he fell on the pitch after a cynical tackle.

The severity of the injury requires that Kotoko fly him out of Ghana for treatment abroad, but an initial trip to a health facility in Dubai was canceled as the club looked for the best among the options available.

Richard Senanu is scheduled to arrive in the city located in the north German state Mecklenburg-Vorpommern in the coming days, pending the acquisition of all the necessary traveling documents.

The player would go through an ACL reconstruction and a post-surgery rehabilitation program in Germany.

Medical Team Member, Emmanuel Osei Owusu, will accompany the player.

The duo will spend about six weeks in Germany before they return to Ghana to continue with the recuperation process.

Germany was Kevin-Prince birth country while Ghana was his father’s country, the forward decided on playing for Ghana Black stars and has revealed that he has no regrets over the decision despite the problems he faced playing for Ghana.

“I did some things when I was young, of course, I’m not very proud of today. Although they are part of me, they were not very positive. In Germany, there are many “straight”, very correct, and they did not much like my behavior. So I saw the really long way to get into Löw’s plans, so I said to myself,” he told Skysports Italia’s The Lord of Football show.

“They want me in Ghana and I want to play for the National team. I had never felt like Ghana before, and I thought that was a good possibility, both personally and mentally. To choose, I relied a lot on myself, on my feelings, because for my heart it was a choice that could be very right. And in the end, I made a very right choice “.

The Bayern star posted a pic on Instagram revealing that he is on his way to Ghana, and he is visiting the country for the first time.

On Thursday, he posted pictures with his sister at the Labadi beach.
