Striker Mahatma Otoo has been cleared by doctors to face Asante Kotoko in the weekend’s top of the table clash on Sunday.

The 19-year-old was initially feared to be ruled out for weeks after he sustained a knee injury during Hearts’ centenary match with Enugu Rangers last Sunday.

However GHANAsoccernet.com’s checks revealed Otoo took part in Hearts’ full training session on Tuesday and his health status was reaffirmed by members of the team’s medical deprtment.

“He (Otoo) took a knock on Sunday during the match against Enugu Rangers but he has made a quick recovery and will be ready to play against Kotoko on Sunday,” Hearts’ medical team member told GHANAsoccernet.com on anonymity.

The news comes as a massive boost for the Hearts faithfuls who are expecting an intact team to face their bitterest rivals on Sunday.
