Chief Executive Officer of Accra Hearts of Oak, Frederick Moore, has flatly denied rumors that the club is on the verge of confirming Serbian tactician Svetislav Tenasijevic as their new head coach.

According to Fred Moore, this is news to him, as the club’s top brass has not initiated any process to appoint another head coach when they already have one.

Reports on several local media platforms suggested the Ghana premier league giants, were close to hiring the former AshantiGold SC and Berekum Chelsea head coach.

This, according to Frederick Moore is palpably falsehood. He was speaking in an interview with local radio station Asempa FM.

“We’ve got a head coach, we haven’t said anywhere on our communication handles that we have sacked our current head coach. So I don’t know how we can appoint another person” he noted.

“Unless of course somebody is appointing him (Tenasijevic) for us and we are going to have two head coaches. So I don’t know anything about it”.

“Its unfortunate. Its either somebody is concocting stories or somebody is being mischievous” Moore concluded.

The Hearts of Oak Chief also noted that the club’s board is working hard behind the scenes to appoint an assistant to support the works of head coach Edward Odoom.

“Assistant Coach, we will get one very soon. We want to make sure we get the best assistant coach we can have, so the board is not gong to be rushed into just appointing anybody”.

“The head coach is aware of the work that is going on behind the scenes to get him the best support that he can get” he mentioned.
