KUMASI ASANTE Kotoko will have to pay a staggering $75,000 to coach Bogdan Korak if the Porcupine Warriors terminated the contract of the Serbian. The huge amount would be the compensation for Coach Korak for not being allowed to see through his contract with Kotoko. Kotoko, Daily Guide Sports has gathered, are not happy about the output of Coach Korak so far and want to give the Serbian trainer the sack immediately the league comes to an end. A source at Kotoko, on condition of anonymity, disclosed to Daily Guide Sports that the Kotoko management has unanimously agreed to sack the coach after assessing his performance in the league for some months. The Kotoko source could not state the exact contractual agreement between Kotoko and the expatriate trainer especially with regard to the years left on Korak�s contract. He however stated emphatic that there is a clause in the contract which binds Kotoko to cough US $75,000 to coach Korak if they decide to sack him before his contract ends. Daily Guide Sports learnt that Kotoko management has been meeting on this thorny issue on a daily basis. Sources said a section of the management has suggested that Kotoko should pay the huge amount and let Coach Korak go since his presence in the team could prevent the club from annexing the league trophy next season. Another section of the management was said to have objected to Kotoko throwing away such a huge amount of money, suggesting that Coach Korak be maintained to see through his contract.
