Hearts of Oak are set to name Paa Kwesi Fabin as their new head coach after the club confirmed talks between both parties are advanced.
The dethroned league champions want to recapture the title next season and have turned to the former Kotoko coach for revival.
Reports say he will be handed a two-year deal and tasked to restructure the side. “It’s not a speculation, it’s a fact.
We are in talks with Paa Kwesi Fabin and 99 percent I can tell you that we have concluded the deal,” Hearts management member Frank Nelson said.
Fabin was asked to step aside by Kotoko before the end of the just concluded season and that has been a concern for the Hearts faithful.
But Nelson added: “We the management we have done our diligence and we felt there’s something we are looking for that we can tap it from Paa Kwesi.
Some of our supporters say he came from the opposite side but the argument is either here or there because nothing prevents someone from Kotoko not to move to Hearts.”
