Owner and financier of Heart of Lions, Dr. Randy Abbey, has set his sights on guiding the club to their first-ever Ghana Premier League title in the 2024/25 season.
The Kpando-based outfit currently sits third on the league table with 54 points, trailing leaders Nations FC by just three points with three matches remaining in the campaign.
Speaking to 3Sports, Dr. Abbey, who also serves on the Executive Council of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), expressed his desire to not only clinch the league title but also secure a place in next season’s CAF Champions League.
“I would want to win the league for the first time and also play in Africa (CAF Champions League),” he said.
Heart of Lions face a demanding end to the season, with three of their last four matches being played away from home. Despite the tough run-in, Dr. Abbey praised the team’s resilience and progress.
“For all the teams that are in the title race, we have the most difficult games. Because prior to the last games, for the four games we had to play, we had three away games and only one game at home. I’m pushing the boys and am proud of what they have achieved so far.
“Whatever way it ends, if we win the league, I will be the happiest man on earth, but I’m even impressed with what we have done so far, and I’m happy with the team. I think that we can even do better in subsequent seasons,” he added.
Heart of Lions continue their title pursuit this Sunday when they face Young Apostles at the Wenchi Sports Stadium in their Matchday 32 clash. They will then host Bechem United before ending the season with a crucial away match against current table-toppers Nations FC.
