Hearts of Oak legend, Mohammed Polo has questioned the club's decision to retain Aboubakar Ouattara as head coach ahead of the 2024/2025 Ghana Premier League season.
The Ivorian manager was named as the Phobian Club head coach midway through the 2023/24 season, replacing Martin Koopman on a two-and-a-half-year deal.
Ouattara led the side to secure their Premier League status on the final day with a 3-2 win against Bechem United at the Nana Fosu Gyeabour Park and is expected to lead the side for the upcoming campaign.
However, Polo speaking in an interview questioned Ouattara's performance, particularly because the coach nearly led the team to relegation.
According to the former Ghana international, the former Asante Kotoko coach lacks the necessary qualities to effectively manage a club.
"I don't understand why Hearts of Oak is still keeping Aboubakar Outarra as head coach," he told Kumasi-based Oyerepa FM.
"Someone who nearly sent the team to relegation. I don't think he has anything good to offer Hearts of Oak," he added.
Meanwhile, Hearts of Oak have announced that they will switch camp to Asutsuare where they will wrap up their pre-season.
The Rainbow Club will open their season with a home game against debutant side, Basake Holy Stars at the Accra Sports Stadium.
