Former Hearts of Oak assistant coach, Hamzah Obeng says his side’s former side needs a deliberate plan to be able to dominate African football again.
Hearts of Oak among other Ghanaian clubs have failed to leave a mark in continental in recent times.
Speaking on the consistent failures of clubs from Ghana, Hamzah Obeng reiterated that clubs who can win the competition have good foundations which are built on projects they invest huge resources.
“Other countries take the Africa Inter Club Competition as a project. Things have changed in the world of football. Football goes beyond what see on the field of play,” Hamzah told Takoradi-based Connect FM.
“Some clubs groom players for some time. WAC had a project which had lasted for 10 years.”
Hamzah who was part of Hearts of Oak’s technical team in their Africa campaign last season added that inadequate preparation over the years has also affected the performance of Ghanaian clubs.
“Football is not luck but preparation, if the opponent prepares well and you face them, you will realize the difference.
“If Hearts of Oak were able to maintain the team which won them the league two seasons ago, we would have seen the difference in their performance,” he added.
