Communications Director of Hearts of Oak, Kwame Opare Addo, has dismissed reports suggesting that the club owes its players three months’ salaries.
The Phobians are currently experiencing a challenging run of form, with only one win in their last five Premier League matches while also suffering a shock FA Cup elimination to lower-tier side True Life FC in the Round of 64.
Speaking to SportyFM, Opare Addo stressed that the claims making rounds are untrue and exaggerated.
“Hearts of Oak officials and players are only owed December salary,” he clarified.
He further emphasised that the club has a consistent and transparent payment structure for all players.
“It’s not possible for one player to be paid and another not to be paid. Even with winning bonuses, everyone receives theirs the same day. Sometimes delays happen because of differences in bank processing times, so it may reflect later in the evening or the next morning. But it never means one person gets paid today and another has to wait a week or two months—it doesn’t work that way,” he added.
After 13 league games, Hearts of Oak sit seventh on the Premier League table with 21 points. They will be hoping to return to winning ways when they host Nations FC at the University of Ghana Sports Stadium this weekend for their Matchday 14 clash.
