Board member of Hearts of Oak, Dr Nyaho Nyaho-Tamakloe, has urged fans of the club to be patient with head coach Aboubakar Ouattara following their slow start to the season.

Ouattara has come under strong pressure from fans after losing back-to-back games in the Ghana Premier League season.

Hearts fell to Basake Holy Stars on matchday one of the top-flight before losing on the road to Heart of Lions in their second game, raising tensions within the club with fans calling for the dismissal of the gaffer.

However, Dr Nyaho-Tamakloe believes fans need to give the coach more time while likening their situation to Premier League side Manchester United.

"I am not worried about this [the team's current form]. All I will tell the supporters is that they should just take their time," he said in an interview with Angel Sports.

"We are building a team and when we are building a team, it takes some time to build a team.

"Look at what is happening to Manchester United. They are losing matches but you can see he [Erik ten Hag] is building a team and I want us to go that tangent."

Hearts sit bottom of the Ghana Premier League table after two games and face Bechem United in their next game.
