'I now have more options to select my starting XI from' - Hearts of Oak boss Martin Koopman

Published on: 30 October 2023

Hearts of Oak's head coach, Martin Koopman, has expressed his satisfaction with the increased depth of his squad following the return of key players from injury.

The re-emergence of players link Nurudeen Abdul Aziz has injected a renewed vigor into the team, leading to careful considerations regarding player selection and tactical strategies.

With the league gaining momentum, Koopman's decisions regarding the starting lineup are expected to have a big impact on the team's pursuit to turn their season around after a poor start.

In their recent fixture on match week seven at the Duns Park, the Phobians secured a 1-1 draw against Bibiani Gold Stars.

Speaking after the match, Koopman acknowledged the challenge of managing a squad with so many options.

"I don't have a headache only I have a headache because I have five points now we have six but I know the quality of the players and Nurudeen wasn't 100 percent fit so the combination with this we did it in pre-season I like it very much," he stated.

"A lot of players are coming back from injury so I choose from a lot of players," he added.
