Hearts board chairman to up salaries and bonuses

Hearts of Oak board chairman Togbe Afedzi XIV has promised a mouth-watering financial package to make the club the best paid in Ghana.

Monthly salaries will be increased and winning bonuses for home and away matches will be upped as well.

Hearts players are reported to be earning between 150 Ghana cedis and 320 Ghana cedis.

AshantiGold, Berekum Chelsea, Medeama and Asante Kotoko have one of the best salary structures in the Ghana top-flight.

The former African champions ended last season trophy-less and this initiative is expected to motivate players and attract big-name signings.
