Earlier reports suggested that the Ghanaian midfielder was close to joining the Tanzanian side, but Eymael believes Kotei needs time off from football.
“[Kotei] is not coming back to Yanga because he is not okay, his mind is not okay, he wants to relax a bit from football for some months before signing a new contract somewhere else,” Eymael told Goal.
“I think he is not a bad player, and I did not speak to him but officials from the club [Yanga] spoke to him and now it is finished because of what he said and now the story is a closed chapter.”
Kotei joined Chiefs at the start of the season but failed to break into coach Ernst Middendorp’s starting line-up.
