Hearts of Oak and MTN to tie knot

Hearts of Oak are on the verge of sealing a massive sponsorship deal with telecommunication giant MTN hours after sealing a two year deal with Japanese American coach Kenichi Yatsuhachi.

The Phobians are leaving no stone unturned in their aim to wrestle back not only the league from AshGold, but also regain their continental credentials in the coming season.

The Phobians showed verve and desire to bring in Japanese American coach Yatsuhashi after agreeing a two year deal on Wednesday night.

They have now moved a notch higher in discussions, as they move close to agreeing a bumper sponsorship deal with telecommunication giants MTN.

The deal with MTN is expected to lay the platform for a smooth take off for both the technical and playing body in the coming season.
