Sumaila: Former Asante Kotoko defender assesses Hearts of Oak's Ghana Premier League triumph

The ex-Red Star Belgrade man shares his thoughts on the outcome of the domestic top flight

Ghana and former Asante Kotoko centre-back Rashid Sumaila has described Hearts of Oak as worthy winners of the Premier League.

Last month, the Phobians beat arch-rivals Kotoko to the championship title, sealing the triumph with a match to spare.

It was their first GPL success since 2009.

“Hearts of Oak deserves to win this year’s league because they fought a good fight. Although Kotoko did well but I believe Hearts were on top, so they deserved it,” Sumaila told Bryt FM.
