Communications Officer of Accra Hearts of Oak, Opare Addo has confirmed Edward Nii Odoom will lead the Phobians in the upcoming campaign.
The domestic top-flight league is returning this weekend after several months of inactive football in the country.
Prior to the start of the campaign, concerns have been raised with regards to who will lead the rainbow boys as a coach for the 2020/2021 season.
The report went rife the Phobians are set to appoint former Black Stars assistant coach Ibrahim Tanko to charge of the club for the season.
But according to Opare Addo they are staying put at Medeama.
In an interview with Hello FM, he said, “People should take their minds off regarding Ibrahim Tanko. We’re looking for an assistant coach. Edward is going to lead the team for the upcoming season as the head coach”
“When Kim Grant left we made it clear that Odoom has taken place. We didn’t state otherwise. If there is any change we’ll announce it”
“I think we made it clear in the announcement we sent out that Pinto came in as a Technical Director. The issue here is that the Pobiman academy will comprise of U12, U17, the Auroras and the main team. So he was not brought in as head coach of the club but as Technical Director of the club”, he said.
Hearts of Oak will travel to Dormaa to honour matchday one against Aduana Stars.
