Former Hearts of Oak youngster Bernard Obuo has said he was left star-struck when he met Ghana legend Sulley Muntari for the first time at the club’s training grounds.

However, the youthful Ghanaian attacker in an interview with Koforidua-based Bryt FM expressed delight sharing the pitch with top players like Sulley Muntari, Samuel Inkoom and Gladson Awako at Hearts of Oak whiles disclosing he was star-struck when he saw the former Inter Milan midfielder.
“Sharing the pitch with top players like Sulley Muntari, Samuel Inkoom and Gladson Awako at Hearts of Oak was great. Playing with them made me feel I have reached a higher pedestal. Truth be told, they thought us how to succeed in the game and I believe their teachings has really helped us”
“They made us know real football stories on how to attain greater heights in the football world. It isn’t easy to be in the same team with Sulley Muntari. I starred at Sulley Muntari for over three (3) minutes when he arrived at Hearts of Oak’s training grounds for the first time. Of course I was star struck. Sulley nicknamed me “The General”, the first day we trained together”
The enterprising winger forward is currently without a club after mutually parting ways with the Phobians at the end of the season.
The young Ghanaian attacker departs the club as he seeks for more playing time next season.
