The talented attacker joined the Phobians during their training session, sparking widespread speculation that a move to the Accra-based giants could be on the horizon. Although no official announcement has been made by the club, his presence at training has heightened excitement among Hearts of Oak supporters eager to see the club strengthen its squad ahead of the new season.
Mustapha Yakubu enjoyed an impressive spell with Heart of Lions, where he established himself as one of the club’s key attacking players with his pace, creativity and ability to influence matches in the final third.
