Hearts of Oak captain Fatawu accuses Papic of favouritism

Hearts of Oak skipper Mohammed Fatawu has alleged former coach Kosta Papic had his favourites at the club.

Barely three months after assuming office for a second spell, Serbian coach Papic resigned from his post on Monday, citing the club's poor run of performance on the management's interference in his job among the reasons.

The latter claim has, however, been vehemently rejected by the leadership of the club, who rather accused the former Orlando Pirates, Kaizer Chiefs and Enyimba boss of favouritism in player selection.

“The thing about the favouritism is that some of the players felt they were ready to play matches but they were never given the chance [by Papic]," Fatawu said, as reported by Citi Sports.
