Hearts are missing the service of their versatile defender Joseph Owusu Bempah, the clubââ¬â¢s spokesman Muheeb Saeed has said.
Bempah is currently on international duty with Ghana at the ongoing Africa Youth Championship in Senegal.
The youngster has captained the Black Satellites to qualify to the 2015 World Youth Championship after a comeback 2-1 win over Zambia on Thursday.
Hearts spokesman Muheed Saeed admits the former African champions are missing the services of the versatile player ahead of their CAF Confederation Cup against Senegalese side Olympique De Ngor.
ââ¬ÅOwusu Bempah is a key player in the side and his absence is really being felt,â⬠he told Happy FM.
ââ¬ÅMutawakilu is not much of a problem because we have Soulama and Tetteh Luggard.
ââ¬ÅBut then, Owusu-Bempah is a big loss since he can play in multiple positions for the team.
ââ¬ÅIf we are able to progress without him, it will show that the team has quality in-depth.ââ¬
