Glid Otanga
Hearts of Oak assistant coach, Abdul Rahim Bashiru, has provided an update on midfielder Glid Otanga's injury following a collision during their game against Accra Lions on Wednesday, May 1, 2024.
He expressed confidence that the player will be available for their upcoming game against Berekum Chelsea.
Bashiru was optimistic about Otanga's availability for the crucial fixture despite the 23-year-old sustaining a nose injury after the collision.
Bashiru highlighted Otanga's significance to the team, stating, "Anytime there is no Otanga, we face a lot of problems but I think he will be ready before the Chelsea game for sure."
Despite the setback against Accra Lions where Hearts of Oak lost 1-0, the deputy coach emphasised that their performance was better than their opponents, indicating their determination to bounce back in the upcoming match.
The Phobian club's recent form has seen them miss out on a win in five of their last six games, placing them 12th on the Premier League log with 35 points.
Hearts of Oak will travel to the Golden City Park to face Berekum Chelsea in the Matchday 29 fixture this weekend, with hopes of securing a positive result and potentially welcoming Otanga back to the squad.
