Dwarfs forward Thomas Esso to complete move to Hearts

Ebusua Dwarfs striker Joseph Esso is in Accra to complete his move to Hearts of Oak.

The forward is expected to sign a three year deal after completing negotiations with the club. Esso is reported to have already agreed with the club on personal terms.

The strong forward scored 8 goals for the Crabs last season and was a member of the Black Star B team following his tremendous performances in the Premier League.

Hearts of Oak trainer Frank Nuttal wants the striker as he is left with few options following the departures of Sam Yeboah and Kwame Kizito.

Kwame Kizito left the Accra based Club to joined Libyan giants Al Ittihad Tripoli.

The Scottish tactician is however left with attackers Benjamin Heymann and Richard Zuma from the youth sides and Coismos Dauda who is yet to rediscover the form that endeared him to the Accra Hearts of Oak fans.

Esso could follow the steps of former Dwarfs striker Bright Lukman, who joined the Accra based side last season.
