Hearts of Oak goalkeeper, Richmond Ayi
Hearts of Oak goalkeeper Richmond Ayi insists he is not in competition with Richard Attah over the club’s first-choice position.
Ayi who joined the Phobians from WAFA SC in 2018 has lost his first choice position to Richard Attah who signed for the Phobians at the beginning of the season.
He has played second fiddle to Attah since the Phobians 3-0 defeat against Medeama SC on matchday 2 of the suspended Ghana Premier League campaign.
Attah’s performance for the Accra-based giants earned him a call-up into the Black Stars for the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations double-header qualifiers against Sudan which was postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic.
In an interview with Wontumi Radio on the competition between himself and Atta, Ayi stated he is not in competition with the former Elmina Shark goalkeeper.
“I don’t think I am competing with anyone at Hearts of Oak, although I’ve been on the bench since the arrival of Atta, he was playing week in week out before the league was halted but that is not a problem,”
“I’m just hoping that I will be selected someday and surely I will deliver as well because if he plays and we win it’s a success to the team and I will be regarded too.” He added.
