Hearts of Oak have opened negotiations with Dreams FC striker John Antwi as the club looks to strengthen its attacking department ahead of the 2026/27 Ghana Premier League season.
According to reports from journalist Shaban Mohammed, the Phobians have made significant progress in their attempt to secure the services of the experienced forward.
Hearts of Oak are keen to add more firepower and leadership to their squad after struggling for consistency in front of goal during the previous campaign, with Antwi identified as a player capable of providing both experience and proven goalscoring ability.
The 33-year-old has enjoyed a remarkable spell with Dreams FC, where he served as captain and played a key role in the club’s impressive domestic and continental campaigns.
Antwi was instrumental in Dreams FC’s run to the MTN FA Cup final, using his movement, strength and finishing ability to remain one of the most dangerous forwards in the Ghana Premier League.
The striker’s wealth of experience, particularly from his successful career in African football, makes him an attractive option for Hearts as they seek to build a squad capable of challenging for major honours.
Antwi remains a respected figure in Egyptian football, where he established himself as one of the country’s most successful foreign players during his time with clubs such as Misr Lel Makkasa, Ismaily and Al Ahly Benghazi.
A move to Hearts of Oak would mark another major chapter in the forward’s career and provide the Phobians with a proven goalscorer as they prepare for a fresh challenge in the upcoming season.
The club is expected to continue strengthening its squad in the transfer window as it aims to return to the top of Ghanaian football.
