Former Legon Cities winger Stephen Appiah Asare is set to join Hearts of Oak in a move that has sent shockwaves through the Ghana Premier League.
According to reports, the 28-year-old winger is close to finalizing a two-year deal with the Phobians, after impressing the technical team with his performances during training sessions.
Appiah Asare joined Legon Cities in the second half of the 2023-24 season and made an instant impact, scoring two goals and providing one assist in 14 matches.
His impressive form caught the eye of Hearts head coach Aboubakar Ouattara, who has moved swiftly to secure his services.
The move has been reported as 60% complete, with the remaining details expected to be finalized in the coming days. Initially, rivals Asante Kotoko had shown interest in the player, but the deal ultimately fell through, allowing Hearts to move in on the winger.
Appiah Asare’s pace and skill on the wings will be a significant addition to Hearts’ squad, and could prove pivotal as they prepare for the upcoming season.
