Hearts of Oak have revealed they will now head hunt for a substantive coach after failing to reach an agreement with Swedish coach Tom Strand.
The Phobians, after receiving over 10 applications, reportedly settled on the Medeama trainer but his demands were too high for the club. This forced Hearts to name an assistant coach in Yaw Preko - leaving the head coach role still vacant.
Opare Addo, head of the team’s communications department says they will not advertise the coaching job but will go ahead and appoint a coach.
“From this period we are head hunting, we want a head coach that can transfer whatever knowledge he has in the game to our players,” he told Joy Sports.
“We are also looking for a young and energetic coach who will be able to do a lot for our squad, Hearts must be transformed and we must play an attractive football in our local league.
“We must be able to get back into the Champions League so we need so we need a coach that has a lot of experience.”
