According to the former Inter Milan and AC Milan star, he is currently focused on helping Hearts to achieve their goals in the league.
“I’m pleased but the most important thing is Hearts of Oak now,” Muntari said in an interview with StarTimes.
“I came in, I got the chance to play for the club, it’s a big team here, the guys are amazing, coach and the staff also.
“So, I am very pleased to be here and also the fans are making things right, I’m home and it’s just a joy to be here.”

Asked if Ghanaians will see him the Black Stars jersey soon, a smiling Muntari responded that “we’ll see”.
The 37-year-old has surprised many with his impressive performances for Hearts and won his first trophy with the club when they defeated rivals Asante Kotoko to lift the President’s Cup.
However, a return to the national team seems premature, especially as the veteran midfielder hasn’t even played 10 matches yet since his return.
