Hearts of Oak Players Unpaid Despite Impressive Start In GPL

Players of Accra Hearts of Oak are still unpaid despite their impressive run in the Ghana Premier League this season.
 
The playing body with the exception of head coach Kenichi Yatshuhashi is yet to receive their salaries and bonuses owed them by management.

This was revealed after the Japanese trainer revealed on is facebook page.

“Our players salaries and promised winning bonuses are unpaid and our assistant coaches have not received their salaries and winning bonuses for few months” He said.

"I was told by players and assistant coaches that it reached the point they can’t carry on any longer.

"My refusal to accept my unpaid salary has nothing to do with that I am unhappy with how much my salary is.

"It is untrue that I am refusing my unpaid salary because I want a raise in my salary.

"I refused to accept my unpaid salary and told them ( management ) several times that they must pay our players and our assistant coaches first before they pay me.”

Hearts of Oak for sometime have struggled to pay their players which eventually led to the players boycotting training last season.

Management on the other hand are expected to settle outstanding bonuses ahead of the team’s League game against WAFA at the Accra Sports Stadium on Wednesday.
