Hearts of Oak youngster Franklyn Owusu says he will grabbed the opportunity of playing with the first teamwith both hands. 

The budding forward was promoted to the senior side after his impressive outing with the youth team, Auroras.

Owusu is versatile and can play on the flanks, making him an ideal replacement for Joseph Esso.

“I am a very ambitious person and always wants to take up challenges and, I see this one as another opportunity to prove my worth at the senior team of this great club”, Owusu told Hearts Media.

The sharp-shooter recently earned a callup to the Ghana national U-20 team and, it is testament of his improved form since joining the club’s youth set up three years ago.

Owusu will now join the Hearts of Oak squad when training resumes in preparation for the new season.

Owusu is rated highly by Hearts’ head coach Edward Odoom who throughout the cancelled season of 2019/20, invited him to train with the first team.

“We will continue to work on him now that he is with the first team, and, I am very confident that going forward, he will become an important player for the club”, Coach Odoom said of the striker.
