Hearts of Oak midfielder, Benjamin Afutu has dismissed reports suggesting that he has parted ways with the club.
The lanky midfielder was reportedly leaving the club for an Azerbaijani club last week.
However, a swift report also emerged that he has signed a pre-contract agreement with Stade Tunisien of Tunisia.
Taking to his Twitter account, Afutu says he remains a property of the 2000 CAF Champions League winners.

The hardworking midfielder has so far scored two goals from 8 appearances for Hearts of Oak.
The 2004 CAF Confederation Cup winners are bent on renewing Afutu’s contract which elapses in less than five months.
The player’s demand might stall the negotiations for renewal.
Hearts of Oak need Afutu to solidify their midfield as they aim to win a league title for the first time in over a decade.
