Asante Kotoko have contacted Karela FC coach Johnson Smith to join the Porcupine Warriors as an assistant coach, according to reports.
The Porcupine Warriors want to bolster their technical team after exiting the CAF Champions League.
Smith's return to the club has put doubt on Kjetil Zacchariassen's future as head coach.
The Norwegian's post-match interview that Kotoko did not have the qualities to play in CAF's elite inter-clubs competition has landed him in trouble.
Smith has worked with Bibiani Gold Stars, Sekondi Eleven Wise and Berekum Arsenal as coach.
