Head coach of Accra Hearts of Oak, Kosta Papic, has resigned three months after returning to the club, Adomonline.com can report.

The 60-year-old is said to be unhappy with Hearts of Oak’s board of directors following a meeting he recently held with them.

The Serbian trainer returned to the Ghana Premier League powerhouse after having a stint with the club in 2008 where he left in the middle of the season, citing managerial interference.

He rejoined the Phobians as a replacement for Edward Nii Odoom after just eight matches of the 2020/21 Ghana Premier League season.

Hearts of Oak currently sits ninth on the 2020/21 Ghana Premier League table with 17 points after match-day 13.
