Former Hearts skipper Amankwah Mireku has praised the management for keeping influential player Thomas Abbey.

Abbey who had an incredible season with the Phobians last season, bagging 13 goals in 28 matches started training with the club today at the Ajax Park, Legon.

Abbey went on a two-week trial with South African giants Ajax Cape Town last month after he attained floating status but failed to land a deal.

"I am happy Abbey is back at the club because we need such a player going into the next season," Said Amankwah Mireku

"The management have done so well and we have to congratulate them for keeping him."
