FC Samartex head coach, Annor Walker, has revealed that he is under pressure from the management of Accra Hearts of Oak to join the club.
The Rainbow Club are currently in search for a new head coach following the dismissial of Samuel Boadu after a poor start to the 2022/23 Ghana Premier League season.
However, the club on Sunday appointed David Dickson Ocloo as assistant coach while they work around to appoint a substantive manager.
“For about two weeks now, I am not free in the hands of Hearts of Oak if I’m not telling lies. They are giving me pressure [to leave Samartex],” he said as reported by Ghana Sports Page.
“Let me ask if your husband or wife is taking good care of you and others want to snatch you will you go? It has affected me, talking about the Hearts of Oak job because I was with them in Accra but they couldn’t approach me now that they are tagging and calling me while I’m in Samartex.
