Joseph Esso’s return to Hearts of Oak hit a snap

Published on: 14 August 2020

The latest information gathered by footballghana.com has revealed that the move by Hearts of Oak to re-sign Joseph Esso has hit a snag.

It can be recalled that exactly a week ago, the Phobians through a communique on their official Twitter handle announced the release of the forward over failed contract extension talks.

This week, the intervention of the supporters' group of the club has seen the player being invited for fresh contract extension talks.

However, the Hearts of Oak Board members at a meeting yesterday unanimously failed to give clearance for Joseph Esso’s returning the Accra-based club.

Oyerepa FM cites the following reasons:

  1. Negative influence on Group dynamics
  2. Insistence on 1yr contract extension
  3. Manager of Esso wants to be the only person involved in foreign transfer of the player.

The player remains linked with a return to Hearts of Oak and talks are expected to continue for the next week in hopes of the parties involved reaching a mutual agreement.
