Hearts of Oak assistant coach, Abdul Rahim Bashiru, is confident that Glid Otanga will be available for their game against Berekum Chelsea.
The 23-year-old Republic of Congo international midfielder Otanga sustained an injury on the bridge of his nose after getting involved in a collision against Accra Lions.
In his post-game interview, Abdul Bashiru stated that his team was better than Lions despite losing the game. He added that Otanga will likely be available to play against Chelsea in Berekum.
“Anytime there is no Otange, we face a lot of problems but I think he will be ready before the Chelsea game for sure,” he said.
The Phobian club lost 1-0 to Accra Lions on Match Week 28 at the Accra Sports Stadium to miss out on a win in four of its last five games.
Following the defeat, the Rainbow Club now sit 12th on the Premier League log with 35 points.
Hearts of Oak will travel to the Golden City Park to face Berekum Chelsea in the Matchday 29 games this weekend.
