Newly promoted Ghana Premier League side Port City FC have confirmed the appointment of former Asante Kotoko midfielder Jordan Opoku as the club’s new assistant coach ahead of the 2026/27 campaign.

Opoku joins the technical team with a wealth of experience, having transitioned into coaching following a distinguished playing career. The former midfielder previously served as assistant coach at WAFA SC, earning recognition for his tactical acumen and commitment to player development.

His appointment forms part of Port City’s strategic efforts to strengthen their technical setup as they prepare for their maiden season in the Ghana Premier League. Club officials believe Opoku’s extensive football knowledge, top-level experience and winning mentality will be instrumental in shaping a competitive side.

In a statement announcing the appointment, the club said:

“We are delighted to announce the appointment of Jordan Opoku as our new Assistant Coach. A former Asante Kotoko player and former WAFA SC Assistant Coach, Jordan brings a wealth of football knowledge, top-level experience and a winning mentality to our technical team.

Opoku’s arrival further strengthens Port City’s backroom staff as the ambitious club continues to build a solid foundation for life in the top flight.

The Premier League newcomers have also been active in the transfer market, completing the signings of Gideon Waja, Stephen Diyou, Kwabena Adu Meider, Francis Gyetuah, Daniel Osei Senior and Ishak Suraj as they intensify preparations for the new season.
