Hearts of Oak have been dealt a devastating blow as three of their players have contracted Coronavirus just a week before the commencement of the 2020/21 Ghana Premier League.
The Phobians returned to Accra on Friday following a two-week camping in Cape Coast ahead of the campaign.
The capital-based side took to Twitter to announce that three of their players have tested positive for the deadly coronavirus.
The club however did not reveal the names of the affected players.
“Three people out of the team that went for corona test have tested positive, and have been referred to the appropriate quarters for isolation and treatment. We wish them well and hope to see them join us soon.”
Hearts of Oak will open their campaign with a trip to Dormaa to engage Aduana Stars on Sunday, November 15, 2020.
