Team Manager for Accra Hearts of Oak Saban Quaye has disclosed that Kim Grant stopped Hearts of Oak from using black magic (juju) because he didn’t believe in it.

It is understood that most Hearts of Oak faithful believe that the spirit of the team was low during Grant’s tenure because he prevented them from using juju and it was the reason to Hearts of Oak’s poor start to the season.

“His (Kim Grant) background frowns at juju so there were lot of things he stopped us from doing,” Saban Quaye told Kumasi-based Kessben FM.

“Luck plays a major role in football so if he (Grant) oppose to ways and means you cant do it.

“I had one on one meetings with him on many occasions but he just didn’t buy to my idea so we couldn’t do anything about it.

“Hearts and Kotoko are big teams so once a player is signed the whole family have the perception that he is wealthy therefore the witches and wizard in his family can work to bring him down so as a manager, you have to protect the players against such things. The players are vulnerable therefore they need protection but I couldn’t pass by Grant because he was my boss,” he revealed.

Hearts of Oak lost for the very first time in Accra against Berekum Chelsea on matchday 1 and following that defeat Kim Grant was replaced with Odoom.

The revelation by Saban Quaye suggests that Gran’t lack of interest in juju could be one of the reasons for his sack from the club.
