Hearts of Oak assistant coach Abdul Gazale has suggested that goalkeeper Benjamin Asare could return to the starting lineup ahead of the club’s trip to Aduana FC this weekend.
The Phobians will travel to the Nana Agyemang Badu I Park on Sunday to face the two-time Premier League champions in their Matchday 15 fixture of the Ghana Premier League.
Asare, who has been sidelined for several weeks, made a return to training earlier this week and is now in contention for selection.
Speaking ahead of the encounter, Gazale explained that the technical team is carefully assessing the squad before making final decisions.
“We are looking at how we are going to put our squad together, including Benjamin Asare. If it is necessary for the goalkeeper’s trainer to add Asare, then why not?”
He added that the club is not under pressure should the goalkeeper be deemed unready.
“If the goalkeeper’s trainer sees that he [Benjamin Asare] needs more time, we have others who can easily do the job for us,” Gazale added.
Asare’s impressive performances over the past two seasons have seen him establish himself as the Black Stars’ first-choice goalkeeper.
Sunday’s clash is scheduled to kick off at 15:00 GMT.
