Hearts to replace Kenichi with Portuguese coach

Information reaching Starr Sports indicates that Hearts of Oak new Portuguese coach Sergio Traguil and his assistant are expected in the country on Friday.

According to close sources within the club, the Portuguese will be in charge of the team’s two junior teams Auroras (Under-20) and Royals Oaks (Under-17) for Division Two and Colts competitions respectively.

This means from next season the club will solely fall on the junior teams to feed the senior side than spending in buying players from other clubs.

"He is likely to drop anytime soon but by Friday he needs to be in town. He is coming to take over the junior teams and not the senior team as rumors are that Kenichi is going to be sacked, please he is coming to handle junior side,” a source told Starr Sports.

The Portuguese will officially be unveiled by the club next week Wednesday to the playing body at the club secretariat.
