Ghanaian midfielder Ibrahim Salifu, who is currently a free agent, has decided not to extend his contract with the renowned club Hearts of Oak due to alleged mistreatment by certain top club officials, according to his agent Benedict Asiedu.
Salifu, who joined Hearts of Oak in February 2021 on a three-year deal from Eleven Wonders, is now seeking a new challenge after completing his contract with the club.
During his time with the team, he played a crucial role in their success, notably helping them secure the Ghana Premier League title in the 2020/21 season, ending the club's decade-long trophy drought.
However, the head coach Aboubakar Ouattara has instructed Salifu to stay away from the team's training until further notice, raising doubts about his participation in the upcoming Democracy Cup game scheduled for July 5.
This decision stems from Salifu's apparent lack of enthusiasm in extending his contract with the Phobians, as his current agreement has already expired.
In an interview on Kumasi-based Kessben FM, Salifu's agent, Benedict Asiedu, openly discussed the reasons behind his client's decision, highlighting maltreatment as the primary factor.
"It's about contract extension. We couldn't find an agreement because the player is hurt about certain things.
"The issues are that Hearts of Oak wanted to sell him to Nsoatreman FC without informing him, sidelining him for no reason, a new coach comes in, he plays him, and they told the coach to stop using him and all that. If there's time for him to extend his contract, it will be difficult."
