Current heads of Hearts lack leadership skills - Fawaz Zowk

Hearts of Oak former management member, Fawaz Zowk claims the current heads of the club lack leadership skills.

According to him, the woes of the club of late is down to poor management by board and management.

The Phobians have been in the news recently for various reasons, notably their failure to lure top players to the club and friction between head coach Kenichi Yatsuhashi and managing director Vincent Odotoi Sowah.

“In the past, the board and management members sacrificed their own resources to make sure that Hearts get good players for the club,” Zawk told Otec FM.

“We were also having prominent management and board members who did recruitments with a magical touch, something the current administration lacks. They lack several things to manage the club to be honest.” He added.

Zawk also called on the hierarchy of the club to sacrifice Sowah ahead of Kenichi if the former is the cause of the confusion.

However, he aadvised Kenichi to respect his employers.

“Odotey Sowah should be sacrificed and let things be like that if indeed he’s making things difficult for the coach.

“It’s not good for us to sack the coach in the middle of the season. United we stand, divided we fall. So for me, let’s all rally behind the coach because looking at where we are on the league log, it is not bad as compared to last season.

“We have to give the coach the support to complete the season and then we assess his performance and behaviour.”

He added: “I want to advice the coach to give full respect to management because we all want the best for the club.”

Hearts are fourth on the league log after the first round of the season with 26 points, two less than leaders Wa Stars.
