The former Enyimba coach has had a difficult spell in charge and finally bit the bullet on Tuesday morning after he watched his side lose their first league game to Hearts of Oak at the Baba Yara Stadium in ten years without a fight.
Cooreman reportedly resigned on Tuesday morning as the pressure finally got to him, but KickOffGhana.com understands that he actually was pushed out of the job.
Staunch Kotoko fan Ali Maradona spoke openly of a scuffle with Cooreman in the Kotoko dressing room after the Hearts loss, and the Belgian was asked by club bosses not to take charge of training on Monday as they stepped up their sacking plan.
With Cooreman gone, assistant Isaac Opeele Boating will get his lifetime dream of managing the club in an interim capacity. His first game in charge will be against his former club Tema Youth on Thursday.
