Defender Michael Mensah Awuah joins Hearts of Oak on a three-year deal from Nations FC

Hearts of Oak have confirmed the signing of centre-back Michael Mensah Awuah ahead of the new Ghana Premier League season.

The stalwart guardsman, who joined the Rainbow Club from Nations FC, has signed a three-year deal after passing his mandatory medicals.

An official club statement on Facebook read, "Drumroll, please. Welcome to the Phobia family, Michael Mensah Awuah! We're excited to have you on board and can't wait to see you shine in the iconic Hearts of Oak colours. Phobia! Masters!"

The 23-year-old was outstanding for the Eagles and played a vital role at the back, having made 28 league appearances to help them launch an impressive debut topflight campaign in the 2023/24 season.

He has already started training with his new teammates and will look to give a very good account of himself to the 'Phobians' in the upcoming Democracy Cup game against bitter rivals Asante Kotoko.
