Asante Kotoko new signing Michael Vinicius Silva de Morais has been handed the shirt number 77, the club revealed today.

The Brazilian joined the Porcupine Warriors on a two-and-a-half year deal ahead of the second round of the 2020/21 Ghana Premier League season.

The striker is expected to make his debut on Wednesday in the outstanding Ghana Premier League fixture against Bechem United after being named in matchday squad by coach Mariano Barreto.

He becomes the club’s second Brazilian following the acquisition of Fabio Gama at the start of the season.

Vinicius has had previous stints with Fluminense (Brazil), Linkoping City and Vasalunds IF (Sweden).
