The management of Hearts of Oak will be counting on their international partners to help settle on a new coach should they fail to name Prosper Narteh Ogum as their new head coach.

The Phobians have been without a substantive coach since the exit of Serbian trainer, Slavko Matic, in March this year.

The Serbian trainer replaced Samuel Boadu on a two-year deal midway through this season.

After he was chased out, assistant coach, David Ocloo, has been tasked to steer the club until the end of the season.

However, a source added that the club’s handlers could turn to their two foreign partners for support should they fail to land the services of a local coach, which was the management’s preference.

“The club wants to see if it can get some technical men through the partnership with FC Cincinnati and Hoffenheim, but management’s first option is to get a local coach,” the source stated.

The source added that even though the club had not officially expressed interest in the former Kotoko gaffer, he was top on the list of those to be considered for the position.

“He [Ogum] is a good coach and would be a good addition to the club but no one has spoken to him yet, and when the club wants to appoint a coach, he would be considered.”

With two games to end the season, Hearts of Oak sit 8th on the league log with 45 points and will host Real Tamale United in the matchday 33 games before wrapping up their campaign with an away game against Berekum Chelsea.
