Hearts of Oak Public Relations Officer (PRO) Kwame Opare Addo has disclosed why his outfit resumed training without the mandatory testing their players for Covid-19.
The 2020/21 football season is expected to kick start from Friday, November 13, 2020 at the various match venues.
Football has been on suspension since March 16, 2020, due to the coronavirus pandemic, leading to the cancellation of the 2019/20 season
The Phobians failed to test their players upon returning. Speaking to Asempa FM in an interview, he disclosed why the clubs failed to test their players before the commencement of training.
"We have not done any testing but we will do it," – Opare Addo said.
"Nobody told us to do testing before resuming training, nobody said that so no one should think that we have done something wrong, we have not.
"And we are not waiting for government before we will conduct our testing, we have our own schedule.
"If you test your players to resume training from home, what will be the sense of doing that test, whiles you are even exposing that person to the rest of the world."
"Immediately we do the test we will make sure that everybody is not going anywhere and it’s not long from now that we will do it," he added.
