The former Sekondi Hasacass defender has been training with Hearts of Oak for months after leaving the Georgian side.

He could be part of Hearts of Oak’s squad for Super Clash against Kotoko on Sunday at the Baba Yara Stadium.

However, the Rainbow club are working so hard to secure his ITC which will make him eligible to feature against his former side this weekend.
