Accra, April 29, GNA – Accra Hearts of Oak has denied media reports which suggest that their players were given GH₵800.00 each after their 1-1 draw against Karela.
Some media reports earlier in the week claimed that Chairman Togbe Afede XIV gave GH₵800.00 to each after getting a point in Anyinase in match-day 21 encounter.
But in a press statement signed by Mr. Kwame Opare Addo, Public Relations Officer of the club, said the the publication was false and should be ignored by the public.
« We want to emphasize that, as a club, we don’t ‘celebrate’ draws. That’s ridiculous and self-demeaning.
« A promise was made for victory, but the player missed it, » the statement said.
The statement urged the media to cross-check their facts before publication and desist from fabricating stories about the club.
Hearts would be in action on Sunday as they travel to Dawu to face Dreams FC in a match-day 22 encounter.
