Tinkler explains Kotoko exit amid Durban City links
Former Orlando Pirates and Cape Town City head coach has broken his silence regarding his abrupt departure from Ghanaian giants Asante Kotoko. Despite a challenging start to the season in West Africa, the tactician insists that his decision to step down was not motivated by the club's recent dip in form or results on the pitch.

Tinkler leaves Asante Kotoko with Durban City waiting in the wings
The Ghanaian giants have confirmed that the 56-year-old has stepped down from his role as head coach, ending his association with the club just eight weeks after his arrival. The former Bafana Bafana midfielder took the reins in mid-July following a short period away from the touchline after his departure from South African side Sekhukhune United earlier in the year.
