The newly promoted Ghana Premier League side announced the decision in an official statement dated Tuesday, October 27, 2026, following a consultative meeting by the club’s Interim Management Committee on Monday, October 26.
The decision comes after Ashantigold’s 1-1 home draw against Kumasi Asante Kotoko at the Len Clay Sports Stadium.

Karim Zito becomes the third coaching casualty in the Ghana Premier League this season, following the departures of Erick Tinkler from Asante Kotoko and Predrag Jardić from Vision FC.
Ashantigold will now look to stabilise their technical direction as they continue their campaign in the Ghanaian top flight.
