Former Ghanaian international Yaw Amankwah Mireku says he is the greatest player to have ever captained Accra Hearts of Oak.

Amankwah Mireku spent a decade with the Phobians before leaving for Indian top-flight side Viva Kerala in 2007.

During his time at Hearts of Oak, the 43-year-old guided the team to winning the CAF Champions League, CAF Confederation Cup, CAF Super Cup titles, six league titles and two FA Cup trophies.

Speaking on Kumasi-based Kessben FM, Yaw Amankwah Mireku stated that he is the greatest Hearts of Oak captain in the history of the club.

“Hearts of Oak have never had a player of my caliber since its inception. I can say that I have been the greatest captain since 1911. I played an integral role in winning the CAF Champions League, Confederation Cup, Super Cup, six league titles among others. No player has achieved that in the club’s history”, Amankwah Mireku said on Kessben FM.

Amankwah Mireku was born in Accra and began his career with Hearts of Oak and was the team’s captain.

Ghana’s leading digital news platform, GhanaWeb, in conjunction with the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital, is embarking on an aggressive campaign which is geared towards ensuring that parliament passes comprehensive legislation to guide organ harvesting, organ donation, and organ transplantation in the country.
