‘Who signs players without a coach?’ – Former Hearts of Oak defender Dan Quaye quizzes club’s operations
Former Hearts of Oak defender Dan Quaye has questioned the way the management has run the club in recent years which has led to their poor run so far in the 2023/24 season.
The Phobians have scored just one goal in their first five games in the Ghana Premier League while also recording just one win.
Hearts appointed a head coach for the new season just a few days away from the start of the campaign by which time the club had already made new additions to the playing body. Management of the team led conversations in player recruitment without the knowledge of Martin Koopman, a move Quaye believes has taken a huge toll on their performances.
“Who signs players without a coach? Where will this happen in the world if not Hearts of Oak? Elsewhere even when they are signing players without a coach, they have scouts who have monitored players for a long time but at Hearts of Oak the Board with their selfish interests do all these transfers without a technical person,” he said on Rainbow Radio.
“They do things anyhow in the club and when the experienced players talk, they force them out. We all know why Awako was sacked from the club. He was sacked because if things are not going well and he speaks, then there is a problem.”
“There is no proper leadership in the club. The same thing happened to Sulley Muntari because they will not accept any contributions he brought on board considering his experience in the game.”
Hearts will look to improve on their performance when they come up against Bibiani GoldStars in their next league game.
