Hearts of Oak legend Amankwah Mireku has harshly criticized the current squad for the club’s poor performance this season.
The team has lost five of their last six Ghana Premier League games, including a recent 1-0 defeat at home against Accra Lions.
Currently, the Phobians are placed 12th in the league standings, just five points above the relegation zone.
Mireku expressed his disappointment with the players’ lack of commitment and focus.
“Players join Hearts of Oak and lose focus because they want to make money and live an unnecessary lifestyle,’ he told Akoma FM.
“Salifu Ibrahim is a typical example, was this his performance when he first joined the club? He no longer plays with passion or zeal.
“Instead of acknowledging the difficulty of playing for Hearts of Oak and putting forth extra effort, the players are just doing it anyhow. They (the players) manage to purchase some small cars, line up the girls, and that’s it. They’re just joking in the club.”
Hearts of Oak travel to the Golden City Park for their next encounter against Berekum Chelsea.
