Antwi’s career challenges and recent form
Away from the celebration, Antwi’s football journey has taken a difficult turn this season.
According to Transfermarkt, the former Great Olympics player has made only two Ghana Premier League appearances in the current campaign due to an injury setback.
His continental involvement brought slightly more activity, with four outings in the CAF Confederation Cup preliminary rounds before Kotoko exited the competition after losing their playoff tie to Wydad Athletic Club.
This season’s struggles reflect a sharp contrast with his impressive maiden spell, during which he featured in 25 league matches, scored once and provided an assist.
He also contributed to Kotoko’s triumph in the 2024/25 MTN FA Cup after they overcame Golden Kick SC in the final.
His consistency earned him a place in the Black Stars squad for the ill-fated 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.
However, he did not feature in the painful 2-1 defeat to Niger, a match remembered for the incident involving Mohammed Kudus.

Antwi joined Kotoko in August 2024 on a three-year deal that runs until 2027. As he navigates his recovery and works toward regaining full fitness, this memorable personal moment offers a bright spot in an otherwise challenging campaign.
