One-time Ghana Premier League winners Berekum Chelsea have announced Michael Hesse-Odamtten as the club’s new head coach.
The Bibires scooped big boys Hearts of Oak who had lined up their ex-star player for an assistant coach role.
For several months, Hesse-Odamtten had looked all set to become assistant to Edward Odoom at Hearts but delays by the hierarchy of the Phobians saw him slip through their hands.
Berekum Chelsea needed a new technical ahead after the post became vacant following decision of Congolese-Belgian coach Alain Landuet to discontinue with the club after the long COVID-19 break.
