Hearts of Oak SC gaffer Samuel Boadu has shown gratitude to the good gesture of his Board Chairman Togbe Afede XIV after billing him out.
The Ghanaian tactician was charged by the Ghana Football Association Players Status Committee (PSC) for breach of contract with giant’s Medeama SC Club including his deputy manager Hamza Obeng Mohammed who also left few days after his Boss.
In the case which was filed, Medeama SC said the decision by coach Samuel Boadu and Hamza Obeng are “premature, unacceptable and above all abuse of office and as an employee did not find it expedient and prudent to warn or complain to the club before taken the decisions.
The Player Status Committee upon review of Medeama case, ordered Coach Samuel Boadu to pay GH₵ 30,000 to Medeama as compensation for unilateral termination of contract.
Medeama SC again, were demanding damages in excess GH₵ 90,000 for the “unilateral” termination of assistant trainer Hamza Mohammed contract.
However, the Status Committee rejected the residual value claim by Medeama, insisting the coach must pay the club a meagre GH₵ 37,500 for breach of contract.
On Monday, Board Chairman of Accra Hearts of Oak SC Togbe Afede XIV transferred an amount of Ghs 67,500 to Medeama SC’s account which will settle the compensations of Samuel Boadu Ghs30k and Hamza Obeng Ghs 37,500.
Taking to twitter, Samuel Boadu expressed gratitude to his Board Chairman kind gesture to bill him out as they fight to end their long standing Premier League trophy drought.
Currently, Hearts of Oak SC sit summit of the Ghana Premier League table with 59 points, three points better off arch rivals Asante Kotoko SC.
