Give me Hearts of Oak or Asante Kotoko and I will win the CAF Champions League – Coach Bashiru Hayford

Published on: 02 May 2023

Experience Ghanaian tactician, Bashiru Hayford is targeting a strong comeback to lead any of the two most successful clubs in the country to achieve continental glory.

According to the gaffer, if he is given the chance to manage either Herats of Oak or Asante Kotoko, he will win the CAF Champions League.

Speaking to Akoma FM, the coach said if he misses out on the Champions League, he will win the CAF Confederations Cup with the Ghanaian club which will give him the chance.

“I am ever ready to coach if called upon. Though I'm unattached now, I have not quit coaching.

“I am more mature now and my understanding of the game has grown, I am available for either Kotoko or Hearts.

“When given the opportunity to coach any of these clubs, within 3 years, I will possibly deliver a continental trophy,” Coach Bashiru Hayford said.

The gaffer continued, “I normally use my first year of appointment to assess the players, groom the team and correct some mistakes. In the second year with some little infusion of new players, we are good to go. If we don't win the league in my second year, surely in the 3rd season it will be a done deal.

“We can possibly win a continental trophy but it will not be immediate.”

Bashiru Hayford, 65, is one of the most experienced tacticians in the country. He is a former Ghana Premier League-winning coach and worked with Legon Cities FC in his last role.
