Hearts of Oak defender Philip Boampong will undergo surgery on his right wrist in South Africa.
The 21-year-old centre-back has failed to recover from the recurrent injury that kept him out of action in the second-half of last season.
Attempts by local doctors to heal the player have been unsuccessful and team doctors have confirmed the rugged defender will need an operation to correct a problem.
�Boampong�s situation needs immediate surgery before he can properly return to the pitch,� the club�s team doctor told the 90 Minutes newspaper.
�Until that is done, he would feel uncomfortable to playing because of the amount of pain that radiates from the affected writ anytime he attempt to train.
�Unfortunately we have the personnel but not the equipment.�
It will be recalled midfielder Kofi Abanga and Richard Quarshigah underwent a similar exercise in South Africa to repair broken knees some few months back.
