Richard Attah bids emotional farewell to Hearts of Oak after departure
Goalkeeper Richard Attah has said his final goodbyes to Hearts of Oak following his release by the club.
Attah, who joined the Phobians from Elmina in 2020, won the Ghana Premier League, two FA Cup titles and the President Cup in his four seasons with the Ghanaian giants.
The experienced goalkeeper struggled for game time last season, with his form in question after a series of underwhelming performances.
However, after a trophy-laden spell with the Accra-based giants, Attah took the opportunity to thank his former club.
He wrote on Facebook: “It’s an honour to represent one of the biggest clubs in Africa, Accra Hearts of Oak and I’m really grateful for the opportunity because they are the reason why I am Richard Attah today
“I want to say thank you to the Board Chairman, Togbe Afede XIV for the love and support, the entire board members, my teammates, the technical team (past and present) and a big one for the FANS who always encouraged me to do my best.
“Winning the league, FA Cup, Super Cup and President Cup in 4 seasons is something I will always be proud of as a former Hearts of Oak Goalkeeper. I love you all # TRUST THE PROCESS.”
Hearts of Oak have signed former Great Olympics shot-stopper Benjamin Asare as a replacement for Attah.
