Hearts of Oak trio return for BA United clash

Struggling Accra Hearts of Oak have been handed a massive boost with the return of Selasi Adjei, Leonard Tawiah and Richard Yamoah from injury layoff.

Goal can confirm that the trio joined collective training session on Wednesday and are expected to feature against relegation-threatened BA United at the Sunyani Coronation Park in the Ghana Premier League on Sunday.

Striker Adjei has not been used by the former league champions since limping off with a knee injury at the Accra Sports Stadium during his side's Caf Confederation Cup win over Olympique Ngor of Senegal two months ago.

Tawiah, on the other hand, is yet to taste action in the second round of the league while Yamoah was suffering from a nagging groin injury.

Their return could be of help to under-fire coach Herbert Addo, who is seeking to turn around the fortunes of the Rainbow Club before the close of the campaign.

Meanwhile, teenager Maxwell Boakye will not be available for the trip to Sunyani as he is headed for a scan on Thursday for an ankle injury sustained during their 2-0 defeat at Wa last week.

Hearts are lying 10th on the league log with 25 points after 19 games and need a win against bottom-placed BA United to revive their campaign.
