Ghana premier league side, Hearts of Oak have re-assigned Ivorian coach, Aboubakar Ouattara to a different role following the appointment of Mas Ud Didi Dramani as new head trainer.

The club announced that Ouattara will now serve as Special Advisor to the Board of Directors on “special assignments and duties.”

Ouattara guided the Phobians to the top four last season despite a challenging campaign that saw the record FA Cup holders blow hot and cold – clocking 58 points in third spot.

His first season with the 2000 CAF Champions League winners can be described as a “narrow escape” after a last day victory against Bechem United kept them in 14th at the end of the term with 45 points.

Hearts of Oak, who won the CAF Super Cup in 2001 and the Confederation Cup in 2004 have appointed experienced coach, Mas Ud Didi Dramani as head coach with Golden Kicks head coach, Fiifi Parker Hanson and former Holy Stars head trainer, Abdulai Gazale set to be confirmed as assistants.
