Hearts of Oak midfielder Eric Esso has insisted Slavko Matic is still the head coach of the club.
Earlier reports in the media suggested David Ocloo, assistant coach of the Phobians has been appointed as interim manager.
It is unknown whether the Serbian trainer has been sacked from his role or not.
But Esso who led the rainbow boys to defeat Asante Kotoko in matchday 20 of the Ghana Premier League to clinch the President Cup claims Matic is still at post.
“It’s not easy but as coach Matic is at home, he communicates. He has never stepped down, he still the head coach” he said.
The Phobians will travel to Bibiani to face Goldstars in matchday 21 of the domestic top-flight.
Hearts of Oak are 5th on the league table with 31 points after 20 matches into the season.
