Hearts of Oak head coach Mas-Ud Didi Dramani has pledged that his team will compete for every major title in the 2025/26 season.
The experienced tactician, who previously served as assistant coach of the Black Stars, signed a two-year contract with the Phobians after taking over from Ivorian coach Aboubakar Ouattara at the end of last season.
Didi Dramani’s tenure began with a narrow 2-1 defeat to arch-rivals Asante Kotoko in the 2025 President’s Cup at the Accra Sports Stadium. Despite the loss, he stressed that the team had gained important lessons.
“We lost, but we learnt credibility in the failure,” Dramani told Graphic Sports. “No coach enjoys losing, and it might not be the last time we experience setbacks. But our aim is to challenge for trophies.”
Before the start of the league, Hearts of Oak will participate in two pre-season tournaments — the Gbese Mantse Homowo Cup on Sunday, August 17, and the GHALCA Top 4 competition from August 20 to 24.
