Kumasi Asante Kotoko have named their starting XI to face Kenyan side Kariobangi Sharks in the CAF Confederations Cup.
The lethal striker has had to battle sickness in the last few months and C.K Akonnor does not want to risk the Burkinabe.
Naby Keita leads the lines and will be supported by Martin Antwi, Emmanuel Gyamfi and Maxwell Baakoh.
Felix Annan , as usual, starts in goal whilst Muntari Tagoe takes a place on the substitutes bench.
Amos Frimpong, Augustine Sefah, Abdul Ganiyu and Emmanuel Agyemang Badu are the back four whilst Richard Senanu and Jordan Opoku will hold the fort in midfield.
The game is scheduled for 12: pm.
