Hearts Of Oak to miss six key players ahead of Elmina Sharks clash

Hearts of Oak will be missing the services of six key players when they make a trip to Elmina Sharks FC in the 2020-21 ongoing hand Premier League on Sunday.

Sharks will welcome the Phobians to the Nduom Sports Complex in a match-day 8 which promises to be fireworks.

Midfield trio Emmanuel Nettey, Abdul Aziz Nurudeen and Nigerien international Abdoulrahmane Mamane Lawali are out of the trip with respective injuries.

Hearts will also trek without forwards Michelle Sarpong, Kwadwo Obeng Jnr. and Isaac Mensah who are also in the treatment room.

Kosta Papic will, therefore, be counting on youngster Victor Aidoo – who scored his debut goal for Hearts of Oak in their 6-1 thrashing of Bechem United a week ago – as a lead striker.

But Larry Sumaila who did not play in the Bechem game due to injury has resumed training.

Hearts are currently occupying 5th on the 18-club league log after seven matches.
