Hearts of Oak has rubbished reports that Portuguese trainer, Sergio Daniel Tranguil will succeed Kenichi Yatsuhashi after the Japanese mutually parted ways with the club on Monday.
There are media reports that the Portuguese coach was brought into the country to take over from Kenichi Yatsuhashi even before the Japanese American mutually parted ways with the Phobians.
But Strategic Committee Chairman Vincent Sowah Odotei has poured ice on those rumours.
“We must put it on record that Sergio was not employed to take over from Kenichi as it’s been reported in the media,” Mr. Vincent Odotei told Asempa FM.
“Kenichi was fully in charge of the first team before we mutually parted ways due to his engagement in next month and we felt cannot cope in his absence.
“We at Hearts of Oak think the reason why our standard of play has fallen, we believe is because we lacked that quality because of the death of colts football.
“We believe to invest in the game, any player that will graduate from Royal Oaks and Auroras must have the right training hence the appointment of Sergio.”
Sergio will be in charge of the Royal Oaks which is the Clubs U-17 team as well as Auroras which is the Club’s U-20 team, according to Hearts of Oak.
However, Sportscrusader.com can confirm that the 35-year old will sign a 3-year deal today (Tuesday) and take over from Kenichi Yatsushashi as coach of the senior team.
