Hearts to begin pre-season on 15 October

Hearts of Oak will start pre-season training on 15 October for the 2015/2016 season.

The Phobians have taken a one-month break after a tumultuous campaign last term which saw them flirt with relegation.

Hearts are yet to appoint a substantive coach after goalkeepers’ trainer Edward Ansah steered them to safety following the exit of Herbert Addo.

The capital club have announced they will sign five quality players to make them title contenders and have recruited Latif Salifu.
