Hearts of Oak set to appoint Carlos Manuel Vaz Pinto as new coach

Ghana Premier League giants Accra Hearts of Oak are set to name 46 year old Portuguese trainer Carlos Manuel Vaz Pinto as the club's new coach.

He will replace Edward Nii Odoom who has the past few seasons been acting as an interim coach since the departure of Kim Grant last year.

Nii Odoom who was assistant coach to Kim Grant has been serving as the interim coach since his sacking in December 2019.

The former St Georges coach will be expected in the country in the coming days to conclude the details of his contract before putting pen to paper.

Edward Nii Odoom will then revert to his old role as assistant coach of the side ahead of the new season which begins in about three weeks time.

The Portuguese' last coaching job was to at FC Famalicão U23 from September 2019 to June 2020 playing 26 matches winning a mere 4 losing 11 and drawing 11.
