Accra Hearts of Oak has announced the elevation of Daniel Kodie to the role of Assistant Welfare Manager for the club’s senior team, reinforcing its commitment to rewarding dedication and nurturing talent within its ranks.
Kodie, a former player whose promising football career was prematurely ended by injury, has steadily worked his way back into the club’s fold in a new capacity. After undergoing surgery in South Africa — fully sponsored by the club — Kodie transitioned into a behind-the-scenes role, determined to stay connected to the game and the team he loves.
He was subsequently assigned to the club’s youth side, Auroras FC, where he served as Assistant Welfare Manager. During his time there, Kodie became a vital figure in the setup, going beyond welfare duties to offer tactical support and guidance to the technical team, contributing to the holistic development of young players.
His promotion to the senior side sees him now working alongside senior Welfare Manager Henry Martey, as Hearts of Oak gears up for the upcoming season. Kodie’s story is one of resilience and unwavering loyalty — qualities that have not gone unnoticed by the club’s leadership.
As he embarks on this new chapter, Kodie brings with him not only his footballing insight but also a deep-rooted passion for Hearts of Oak. His journey from the pitch to a key off-field role stands as an inspiring example for many within the Phobian family.
Fans will see this move as a powerful message — that loyalty, perseverance, and service to the club are truly valued and rewarded.
