Former CEO of BA United, Roy Arthur, is being backed by a cross section of the Phobia family to become the next Managing Director (MD) of the champion club with Vincent Odotei on the verge of relinquishing the position.

Odotei revealed on Sunday, after the win over Kotoko, that he will surrender his position as the acting MD of Hearts to concentrate on his political career.

And since then, several names have been speculated as possible replacements for the Member of Parliament but some key members of the supporting wing of the club believes the young Central region Football Association chairman Roy Arthur should be given the nod for a new direction in the club.

“Football is now dynamic in terms player sale, modern administrative structures and as well a young person to steer the affairs of the club. For a young man to solely qualify BA United to the elite league and even went on to transfer over ten players after a season and securing major sponsors for the club this should tell you Hearts will go far with Roy Arthur”, Fans told Starr Sports.

Meanwhile, there are names like Herbert Mensah, Randy Abbey and Ato Quaquarine all coming up for the MD position
