Striker Victor Aidoo has officially confirmed his departure from Hearts of Oak SC following the conclusion of his contract with the club.
After joining the Phobians in 2020 on a three-year contract from FC Samartex, Aidoo’s contract has now expired, and the club has decided not to renew it, making him a free agent.
During his time with Hearts of Oak, the 24-year-old striker had limited opportunities to showcase his talent and was loaned out to Real Tamale United last season. As a result, Aidoo has made the decision to seek new challenges elsewhere in order to continue his development.
“I no longer have any affiliation with the club. I lost interest in Hearts of Oak due to the way they treated me,” Aidoo stated.
“Before the start of the season, I was in the final year of my contract, and the club approached me about an extension before sending me out on loan. However, I declined and requested a mutual termination of my contract, but unfortunately, it didn’t happen.”
“As a result, I was asked to stay at home until my contract expired, and I did not participate in the first half of the campaign.”
“However, when Coach Matic arrived, I was called to join the team for training, and I impressed them. Subsequently, I was registered for the second round to fulfill the remaining six months of my contract,” Aidoo explained, as quoted by Sportsworldghana.com.
Throughout his three-year tenure with the Phobians, Aidoo made 53 appearances, scoring 11 goals and providing one assist. He played a significant role in Hearts of Oak’s success, contributing to their triumph in the MTN FA Cup and the league title in the 2021/22 season, as well as their recent victory in the President’s Cup.
