I have already given a statement to the on the scandal to the police in Kumasi and I'm waiting for the day the matter will go to court," the paper quoted Coach Abubakar Ouattara as saying in an interview.

The Coach, the paper said was reacting to a story published in the 8 to 11 January edition of the Graphic Sports in which Hearts and Harry Zakkour, in separate statement, categorically denied transferring Yaw Sekyi to a club in Germany with a forged certificate.

Ouattara alleged he paid $20,000 to Mr. Zakkour as part payment of a supposed $100,000 transfare fee after which he received a transfer certificate from Hearts boss.
