Hearts of Oak deputy coach Mohammed Hamza Obeng has charged the club’s board and management to plan well ahead of their participation in Africa.
According to Obeng, the team didn’t get enough preparation for their CAF inter-club competitions as they failed to make it into the group stage with disappointing defeats against eventual African champions Wydad Athletic Club and Algerian side JS Saoura.
Samuel Boadu’s side also had a disappointing league campaign as they lost the GPL trophy to arch-rivals Asante Kotoko, who won their 24th title with three games left to play, however, the Phobians beat Bechem United to win their 12th MTN FA Cup title.
“Last season, we didn’t get enough preparation for Africa,” coach Obeng told Akoma FM.
“So going into the Confederation this time, with the experience we had last season the board and management of Hearts need to plan well , if possible travel outside and play some high profile matches for the playing body to get that exposure.”
“We know for sure that playing in Ghana, definitely we must win with a huge margin and make the second leg a mere formality.”
