Former Hearts of Oak midfielder Anthony Annan has challenged the club’s current players to give their all in order to reclaim lost glories.
Hearts of Oak have had a disastrous Ghana Premier League season, losing six of their past seven games in the Ghanaian top flight.
The team’s home defeat against RTU has pulled them into the relegation zone, as they sit 11th in the league standings with 45 points, making their last encounter away to Berekum Chelsea a must-win.
The former Ghanaian midfielder acknowledged in an interview that Hearts of Oak’s caliber has declined and pleaded with the players to give it their best to restore the club’s glory.
From his headquarters in Norway, he told Pipapipa Media, “We all know the hardships the club is going through, but I want to tell the players that it is part of football and that they should continue to put forth their best even during the bad times.
There are chances for you when you give your all for the club because it is a large club. The standard of hearts has decreased, therefore the present players must fight hard to restore the club’s glory years,” he continued.
Hasaacas’ Anthony Annan joined Hearts of Oak in 2005 and played for the team through 2007.
He performed spells with Hasaacas and Hearts of Oak before moving on to more favorable terrain.
The midfielder, who hasn’t announced his retirement yet, has previously played for Schalke 04, 1860 Munich, Osasuna, Beitar Jerusalem, and other teams.
