Hearts coach Akunnor handed US$ 2.5m war chest
Posted On Tuesday, 14th August 2012
CK Akunnor has been given US$ 2.5m for transfers
Hearts coach CK Akunnor has been given 5 million Ghana cedis (US$ 2.5 million) to spend in the transfer market.
Akunnor dreams of augmenting his squad for the upcoming season after ending last term without a silverware.
This also means the capital-based club can compete with big spenders Medeama SC, Berekum Chelsea and Asante Kotoko for marquee signings.
The club have acquired the services of enterprising left-back Seth Owusu from Medeama and former Ghana Under-17 captain Emmanuel Ansong from Aduana Stars.
Hearts finished third in last season’s Ghana Premier League and wants to win it this season.

This is good news for my darling club. Glorious Hearts of Oak shall be different next season. Accra Hearts of Oak is the best and greatest club in Ghana. This is a whooping sum… soccernet pls check the amount well. 5 million new Ghana cedis is 50 billion old cedis.
Good to know that they are finally coming to the party. They have been outsiders for too long. Welcome on board Togbe Afede, but make sure the monies actually go into buying the players, not into some contractors pockets as has always been the case. Fabulous, the Greatest.
No way , this is a lie! $2.5m? They ain’t given him even $250,000 !
go to the natioal sports college academy in winneba and you will get better players there.that was where they bought thomas abbey last season and that was the same place kotoko also purchase michael anaba
Great news, but the right usage of the money will also be very important.no cronyism and favoritism PHOBIA NEVER SAY DIE
Very well,but the players must be medically and physically fit. PHOOOOOBIA
Hahahahahaaaa.
GSN are u sure?
What is the value of our premiership.
this is the first time a coach in ghana is given money to do his own buying.phobia 4 ever.
am a phobian but i think this story is not credible. any way , he gotta spend the money for the intended purpose.
