Former Hearts of Oak defender Raddy Ovouka has ruled out the possibility of an imminent return to the Ghanaian giants, indicating that a comeback might only be considered in the distant future.
The Congolese left-back, who permanently departed the Phobians in 2023 after a brief loan stint with New Mexico United in the United States, had previously played a crucial role in Hearts of Oak’s success.
Ovouka’s peak with the Phobians was marked by his involvement in securing the 2021/22 Ghana Premier League title.
However, the 24-year-old’s exit was accompanied by strained relations with the club, prompting a definitive decision to postpone any immediate plans of returning.
“Right now I think not. Because before I left the club, there were a lot of misunderstandings. They didn’t understand me, I didn’t understand them before I left,” he conveyed to ghanasportspage.com.
“Since I left, no board member has called me to check on me, whether I’m okay or not. I’m a Hearts of Oak player, and you need to check on the players if they are okay and in good condition.
“The club never did that. They gave me the platform which I will never forget, and I thank them for everything they have done for me. But right now, I’ll say I can’t come back, but maybe in the future, I can come back.”
