Hearts of Oak legend, Charles Taylor, reveals that Hearts of Oak sent him to Switzerland to sign a contract which never existed, and claims he accompanied a woman to trade.
Charles Taylor spent three year with Hearts of Oak from 2000- 2002 before joining Asante Kotoko in 2003.
He won the CAF champions, CAF super cup, Ghana Premier league and others with Hearts of Oak.
He was reported to have rejected a deal in Switzerland and other clubs during his stint with the Accra based-side.
Taylor, 40, claims that he had a deal worth $400,000 with Italian side, Brescia, after successfully passing trials, but Hearts of Oak rejected it because they claimed that they've secured $1million deal with a Switzerland based club for him.
The former Asante Kotoko marksman says he never had a contract in Switzerland and reveals that he accompanied his host to trade after not training with any team.
"So I returned to Ghana to make preparations and go back to Italy to sign my contract. I went to see Tommy Okine(Former Hearts CEO) and he told me they had gotten a new deal in Switzerland and the money is $1 million. So I agreed because the money was obviously more huge than the $400,000 and I wanted Hearts to make money," he admitted on Dan Kwaku Yeboah TV.
"People have been saying I got a contract in Switzerland, I never had a contract in Switzerland," he insisted.
"I went to Switzerland and lived with a lady called Maame Mansah. She was with a white man who was close to some clubs and portrayed himself as an agent but he is not," he disclosed.
"I went there about four times, I use to accompany the woman to do her trade business on the Garmany-Switzerland border... the team they claimed I signed for I never trained with them."
