Communications Director of Hearts of Oak, Kwame Opare Addo has rubbished claims that Corporate Affairs Manager of the club, Kwaku Sakyi was sacked over embezzlement of funds.

Report in the media suggest that Kwaku Sakyi, who joined the club last year June, has been relieved off his role as Corporate Affairs manager of the club after misusing an amount of ¢10,000 meant for the youth side, Royal Oak.

However, the club's scribe has dismissed the report and insisted that Mr Sakyi resigned on his own accord to concentrate on other things.

"Kwaku Sakyi resigned wholeheartedly to concentrate on other things," Opare stated on Happy FM's Weekend Sports.

"He has returned the 10000 cedis to Hearts of Oak before he resigned."

Meanwhile, the club has had a difficult start to the season, having already lost four games in 11 matches.

The Ghana Premier League is however on a two week break. The Phobians have an outstanding game with Champions Aduana Stars.
