Sammy Adjei is growing increasingly worried that his football career could be heading for a pre-mature end after his latest attempt to pick up the broken pieces ended in disaster.
Adjei, a former Ghana number one with a massive wealth of experience at both club and international level told TV3's Talk Sports program that he was desperate to play again but revealed his attempt to join Maritzburg United have crashed after the club told him they are no longer interested.
"The club have written to me to say because of the complications, they are no longer interested in the deal. It worries me because I really want to pick myself up again. I want to be playing football again and I have always thought my best bet is to do it outside Ghana."
Adjei has accused Hearts of not doing enough to protect his interest in the Maritzburg case. "I signed for Hearts without taking a penny from them because I always made it clear my first option was to travel.
“When I had problems and asked for time to sort it out, they claimed I was just not interested in playing. I dealt with Maritzburg because in truth my contract with Hearts was only until the end of the Ghana season which was over."
Hearts insist they did nothing wrong and that they had merely insisted to Adjei that Maritzburg must deal with them at a club-to-club level.
The goalkeeper says he is now hoping his agents can fix him a new club as quickly as possible.
He was first choice goalkeeper for Ghana at the 2002 and 2006 Nations Cup and was phenomenal in Hearts of Oak's run to the African Champions League title in 2000.
He was sent packing by Israeli club Modena Ashdod in the summer of 2008 following a disagreement over his appearance at the 2008 Nations Cup in Ghana.
