The second transfer window was opened last Monday and the Phobians want to make the former Amidaus Professional goalie their first signing, a player they believed will be a replacement for ageing Soulama Abdoulaye who will turn 37 in November.
“We have expressed interest in Eric Ofori Antwi, he is a good goalkeeper judging from his exploits at Kotoko, Amidaus and the Black Satellites, he will be good addition,” a source close to Hearts of Oak revealed to Pulse.com.gh
“We are not searching for a goalkeeper because of Soulama Abdoulaye’s howler last Monday. Soulama is a good goalkeeper but the issue is we have to get his replacement because of his age.
“Ofori Antwi is a young goalkeeper and we believe he can step into his shoes. Our other goalkeepers are good but the plan is, we are building a strong team for the future,” the source added.
Ofori Antwi at Kotoko has fallen on the club’s pecking order behind Ernest Sowah and Felix Annan.
