Former Kotoko coach, Maxwell Konadu
Accra Hearts of Oak are in negotiations with Ghanaian coach Maxwell Konadu to assume the role of head coach following the club’s struggles in the 2024/2025 season.
According to a report by Wontumi FM, the Phobians are in talks with Konadu and hope to reach an agreement on contract terms as soon as possible.
As part of the proposed arrangement, the club plans to reassign current head coach Abubakar Ouattara of Ivory Coast to the position of technical director, where he would offer strategic support to the new head coach when necessary.
Maxwell Konadu is currently unattached after recently parting ways with South African side Black Leopards to take a break from coaching.
Hearts of Oak have underperformed this season. With four games remaining in the Ghana Premier League, they sit sixth on the table with 46 points.
Coach Ouattara has faced mounting criticism from supporters and the media over his tactical decisions and overall game management.
How the Ivorian coach finishes the season will determine whether he retains a role at the club or is dismissed, as the Phobians look to reclaim their former glory.
