“Every Hearts of Oak player will start at any GPL club” – Alhaji Akanbi

Hearts of Oak board member, Alhaji Akanbi has insisted that the hierarchy of the club cannot be accused of doing bad recruitment prior to the start of the 2022/23 football season.

According to the football administrator, the Phobians have the best players in Ghanaian top-flight.

Responding to media suggestions that their players are non-Hearts standard, Akanbi claimed that every Hearts player will start at any Ghana Premier League club.

“Every player at Hearts of Oak will be a starter in any team in Ghana so no one can blame us that we had a bad recruitment,” Alhaji Akanbi said.

The board member asserts that the 5-1 defeat against Medeama does not confirm the claims that Hearts have low level players.

“I still can’t believe it and couldn’t believe it yesterday. As a board member, we have done everything needed of us and we are still doing everything the team needs.

“The players didn’t do well. I don’t know what happened but this is not how they play. To be honest with you, they did not play well.”
