Amankwah Mireku back to Hearts

 

Amankwah MirekuAccra (Greater Accra) 07 February 2003 - At long last, the future direction of lateral defender Yaw Amankwah Mireku, has been decided following his arrival at the Hearts of Oak training camp in Keta on Wednesday.

 

Amankwah, who joined the Phobians from Okwawu United in 1998 has been one of the most loyal and dedicated players of the club until he decided to seek floating status upon his arrival from the United States a few months ago.

 

Speculations were rife that he was flirting with Asante Kotoko and, later Okwawu United, however, having pitched camp with his Hearts colleagues has eventually put paid to the rumours.

 

Amankwah’s decision to smoke peace pipe with management and stay with Hearts was due to the GFA’s Player Status Committee ruling that his case be settled out of the GFA’s jurisdiction. It is against this background that both Amankwah and Hearts officials decided to settle the impasse between them amicably. – Hearts News

GFA defers decision on Lawrence Adjei

 

Accra (Greater Accra) 07 February 2003 - The Player Status Committee of the Ghana Football Association (GFA) has again deferred Lawrence Adjei’s case to 13 February following the failure of Asante Kotoko officials to turn up at the committee’s meetings on two occasions.

 

Information gathered from the FA’s secretariat indicates that, the committee would have its final sitting on the appointed date, after which a decision would be taken. Kotoko’s newly appointed Interim Management Committee are expected to attend the sitting.

 

Adjei, who was unsuccessful in his professional stint in Russia, is seeking a floating status from the GFA as well as a temporal International Transfer Certificate to enable him re-launch his in Ghana.
