The Akarakachi Boys had a mixed first round when they beat Asante Kotoko and drew with Hearts of Oak at home but Akunnor says the club must set modest targets as the season gets into the home stretch. “The club is just back in the top flight after a long time so staying up remains the priority,” the former Black Stars captain told KickOffGhana.com. “We will look to compete and finish as high as we can but if we finish in a top four position, that will be a bonus.” A top four place will mean a place in Pan African club competition for Wise who ended the first half of the campaign in 6th place one point behind fourth placed Asante Kotoko. Wise strengthened their squad with the signing of a number of key players including 2007 MVP Kweku Essien but Akunnor says it will be a while before the former Kotoko star has an impact on the team. We need to do a lot of work on him, he said. “He just is not match fit at the moment.”
Top 4 will be bonus for CK
