So like usual, I was surfing my phone and chatting when my notification bell rang followed by a news feed from the official twitter handle of Hearts of Oak announcing the capture of predatory striker, Abednego Tetteh.



Initially, I didn’t know what to make of the news, because days prior, I had hints on his imminent move to the capital-based club, Hearts, as a free agent, so I was only in wait for an official announcement and behold the hour dawned gracefully.

Abednego Tetteh signing for Hearts. I said to myself, this was a massive coup for the Rainbow judging from the fact that, he wasn’t your regular forward.

He was fueled with bags of energy, drive, passion, and determination to deliver when push comes to shove.

His days at a relatively unknown Bechem United side, who won the FA Cup at the time spoke volumes of what he was endowed with, his stats were amazing then, involved in 12 goals and 5 assists in 22 appearances career in the 2016/17 league season an appreciable feat worth commendations.

From his success with Bechem United moving on to Al Hilal Omdurman, Jimma Aba Buna, Al- Hilal El- Obeid, Real Kashmir, TRAU he didn’t enjoy a good run in all these clubs leading him back where it all began home, Ghana.



He was bought to replace duo Kofi Kodzi and Joseph Esso but he had limited opportunities to feature under coaches Edward Nii Odoom and Kosta Papic, who preferred Victor Aidoo, Kojo Obeng Junior, and Isaac Mensah.

If there’s any respite for Tetteh, the aforementioned coaches are no longer at post and with a managerial change seeing the young, energetic, and dynamic Samuel Boadu assuming the reigns of the coaching space at Hearts of Oak, it won’t be a surprise to see “Zlatan” as he’s affectionately called get some minutes underneath his belt to boost his confidence.

Abednego Tetteh could provide coach Boadu another form of tactics to deploy considering his ability to play as a figurehead, allowing others room to operate and still getting in on the action in end with goals and assists.

The 30-year might have spent a host of times outside the country, but his experience, will power and passion can never if underestimated, he will be a real asset to the Phobia fraternity, who have a long-standing ambition to win the league after a decade of absence and if anyone deserves another shot on the field, it’s no other than Abednego “Zlatan” Tetteh.

Hearts of Oak striker, Abednego Tetteh has emotionally appealed to the teeming club’s fans to go on their knees and say a word of prayer for him in hope that he ends his goal-scoring famine in the Ghana Premier League 2020-21 season.



The towering striker, who completed a summer move to the former Ghana Premier League winners has endured a tumultuous campaign so far.

He made his debut in Hearts’ 2-2 draw with Obuasi Ashantigold and has gone on to play against Inter Allies and Karela United FC respectively which he has since failed to glitter in at the Accra Sports Stadium.

This trend of events has caused the nomadic striker, who prior to his signing for the Rainbow club gave fans lots of promises that, he will win the golden boot as well as help the club end it’s over a decade wait for the Ghana Premier League trophy.

The former Bechem United striker who dazzled many with his goals and stupendous performances before earning a move oversees to Al Hilal has called on fans to pray endlessly for him as well as support him in every possible to break his goal drought which is becoming a headache for him.

“I’m pleading on the fans to remember in prayers so I can pick my scoring boot. I have been training and doing whatever I have to do as a player but I’m still not getting the goals.”

“I’m begging you to rally behind the team and the players so we can return to winning ways.”

This weekend,Hearts of Oak are up against Dawu based Dreams FC in a tricky in matchweek five of the ongoing campaign.

Accra Hearts of Oak striker Abednego Tetteh has strongly suggested that the club’s objective this season is to reclaim the Ghana Premier League.

The Accra-based side have over a decade being eluded with the chance of winning the most coveted trophy on the Ghanaian football scene.

Several years have passed and like every year, the club’s sole ambition is to win the league to appease its fans, who are growing increasingly frustrated by the trophy drought that has plagued the centurion club.

However, striker Abednego Tetteh remarked in a recent media interview with CitiTv expressed his readiness together with his teammates to land a major silverware for the club’s fan base.

“We cannot wait for the start of the new campaign as we want to repay the club for the faith, they have shown in us,

The goal for the season is to win the Ghana Premier League title for the Phobian family,

I personally want to win the league to write my name in the history books of Accra Hearts of Oak,” he ended.

Tetteh’s services was acquired by Hearts on a two-year deal as he will be expected to lead the lines following the departures of Kofi Kordzi and Joseph Esso.

The Ghana Premier League 2020-21 season will kickoff start on November 13, 2020, as clubs are expected to test their playing body, technical team and staff prior to the commencement of the season.

New Hearts of Oak signing, Abednego Tetteh has vowed to give off his best when the Ghana Premier League resumes.

The 29-year-old forward recently finalized paper works with Hearts and will wear jersey number 36 for the Rainbow lads, after registering in the second transfer window in March.

The towering striker has been in the country for quite some time, watching and training with Hearts for the first half of the season.

In a recent interview on radio, the former Okwahu United target man promised the teeming fans of Hearts of Oak that he will score more goals to aid the club to more glory.

Hearts’ attacking duo of Kofi Kodzi and Joseph Esso have managed to score less than 10 goals for the club.

Tetteh was a member of the Bechem United team that won the FA Cup in 2016. He also had stints with Al-Hilal, Jimma Aba Buna and Indian sides Real Kashmir and TRAU.
