OFFICIAL: Hearts Of Oak appoint former Kotoko assistant trainer Ocloo as their new deputy coach

Ghana Premier League side Hearts of Oak have appointed former Kotoko assistant trainer as their new assistant coach.

The 38-year-old has been tasked to take temporary charge of the team as head coach ahead of their upcoming campaign at Real Bamako in the 2022/23 CAF Confederation Cup qualifier.

The club confirmed on Sunday, 2 October 2022: ”His appointment takes immediate effect and forms part of the club’s restructuring exercise of the technical team.

”In the interim, Ocloo will act as the Head Coach and will be assisted by Samuel Nii Noi until a substantive coach is appointed shortly. He is expected to lead the team’s preparations ahead of this weekend’s Confederation Cup first leg against Real Bamako of Mali in Bamako.”

Cloo was an assistant coach for Kotoko last season when they won the league title under the tutelage of Prosper Narteh Ogum.

However, Ocloo left the Porcupine Warriors following the departure of Prodper Ogum due to some misundanding between the gaffer and the Reds’ management.
