Accra Hearts of Oak Sporting Club head coach, Martin Koopman, has doubled down on his belief that Hearts forward Hamza Issah plays like Romario.
Romario is a retired Brazilian football legend who starred in and won the 1994 FIFA World Cup and played for FC Barcelona in Spain.
He said this after watching Issah score a brace in Hearts 3-1 win over Medeama in the 2023-2024 BetPawa Premier League Week 8 fixture.
However, Issah missed out on the chance to register a hat-trick in the game as he had to leave the game after the first half due to a stomach issue.
“It was a pity that Hamza was sick at half time, he had a little problem with his stomach…so I must change him but you see the qualities of Hamza.”
“He has something from Romario, low on the ground, turns very fast. I like him very much. It was a pity that we had to change him but all the other players did a very good job.”
