Ghanaian giants Accra Hearts of Oak have decided not to sign players for less than three years following the departures of some of the club's key players last season.
The club lost several of their key players for free at the end of last season. The likes of Captain Thomas Abbey, Vincent Atingah and Kwame Kizito all left on a free transfer.
According to Public Relations Officer of the club, Kwame Opare Addo, the constant loss of key players has affected the club’s quest to end their trophy drought and the board has learnt from their past mistakes.
“Going forward the board has decided we will not sign on players for lesser years, i.e., less than three years,” he told citifmonline.com
“That aside the club has begun negotiations with players who have less than a year left on their contracts.
“That is because we value these players and we believe they can help us win something in the future.
“It will always come with money but we have learnt good lessons and we don’t want to repeat the mistakes of the past. We want to have a consistent team of players who can help us win trophies.”
Hearts will begin their Ghana Premier League campaign against Eleven Wonders.us.
