Gladson Awako, the midfielder for Hearts of Oak, is confident that his team will win the Ghana Premier League title. Currently, after 22 games into the domestic top-flight campaign, the Phobians are in fourth place with 35 points.
Hearts of Oak may be considering former Asante Kotoko coach, Prosper Nartey Ogum, as a replacement for Coach Slavko Matic due to a strained relationship with the fans.
The club is currently undecided on what to do with Matic, whose two-year contract is still valid, but if a parting of ways becomes necessary, Ogum is a likely candidate as he has caught the attention of the club's management.
Sources have hinted that Hearts have begun a behind-the-scenes engagement with the University of Cape Coast professor who is said to be a big admirer of the club and was willing to join the Phobian family.
“Ogum is a more preferred choice for Hearts because he’s a good coach and I’m hearing that he is interested in the job”, a source told Graphic sports.
Matic has been absent from the bench in their last three games, with David Ocloo leading the team to victory against Kotoko and a draw against Bibiani Goldstars.
The club has reportedly engaged in discussions with Ogum, who is a fan of Hearts and has shown interest in the job.
Once appointed, Ogum would join a list of coaches who have coached both local giants.
Following their league clash at the Accra Sports Stadium on Sunday, Hearts of Oak assistant coach David Ocloo commended Kotoku Royals’ coach John Eduafo for his team's impressive performance despite being at the bottom of the table.
Head coach of King Faisal FC, Jimmy Cobblah has expressed dissatisfaction in his side's inability to grind all three points against Bibiani Goldstars last Monday.
In match week 22 of the 2022/23 Ghana Premier League on Monday afternoon at El-Wak Stadium in Accra, Legon Cities defeated leaders Aduana FC with goals in both halves.
King Faisal have dropped to the relegation zone after sharing spoils with Bibiani Goldstars in the Ghana Premier League match-week 22 fixture on Monday afternoon.
