Hearts of Oak right-back Michael Ampadu
Hearts of Oak right-back Michael Ampadu is set to part ways with the club after failing to reach an agreement on a contract extension, sources close to the player have confirmed.
The defender has been a regular in the Hearts of Oak setup since joining from Legon Cities and was a key part of the team during the last Ghana Premier League campaign. Despite consistent performances, talks between the club and the player over a new deal have hit a deadlock, with no official agreement in place as of now.
Ampadu’s contract has expired, and with the Phobians yet to table a new improved offer, the player is now expected to leave the club as a free agent in the coming days. His departure will mark the end of a notable spell with the former league champions.
Several clubs in the Ghana Premier League and outside are reportedly showing interest in the versatile full-back, who is now free to negotiate terms elsewhere.
His experience, work rate, and defensive awareness make him an attractive option for clubs looking to strengthen their backline ahead of the 2025/26 season.
Hearts of Oak, under new head coach Mas-Ud Didi Dramani, are expected to undergo a major squad reshuffle as they prepare for the upcoming campaign and Ampadu’s imminent exit appears to be part of the changes.
