Former Black Stars assistant coach Maxwell Konadu is on the verge of taking over as the new head coach of Accra Hearts of Oak, with the deal reportedly 80% complete.
Hearts of Oak are expected to make an official announcement once all contractual details are finalized. The former Asante Kotoko manager will replace Ivorian tactician Aboubakar Outtarra if the move materialises.
Sources close to the negotiations reveal that barring any last-minute hitches, Konadu will be confirmed as the new boss of the Phobians in the coming days, marking a significant shift for the struggling Ghana Premier League giants.
In a possible boost to the technical team, experienced goalkeepers coach Najahu Issa is also expected to join Konadu at Hearts. Talks are progressing smoothly, and if all goes as planned, Issa will be part of the new setup.
Konadu, known for his tactical discipline and calm demeanor, is seen as the ideal candidate to steer Hearts back to their glory days.
His appointment is anticipated to bring stability and a new direction to the club, which has endured a turbulent season.
The club are sixth on the table with 46 points, trailing league leaders Bibiani Gold Stars by 8 points.
