“We have with us a coach who is the most experienced that we have ever had, coach Ouattara, and we hope his ability will help us,” remarked Togbe Afede XIV, underscoring the significance of Ouattara's role in the team's journey.
Despite sitting in ninth place with 32 points after a recent defeat against Samartex, Hearts of Oak remains optimistic about their prospects under Ouattara's guidance. They aim to bounce back strongly in their upcoming match against Bibiani Gold Stars at the Accra Sports Stadium.
Coach Aboubakar Ouattara holds a CAF License 'A' coaching certificate, indicative of his high level of qualification in football coaching. His extensive experience spans various African countries, where he has achieved success both as a coach and Technical Director.
