St Johnstone Snubs Former Hearts of Oak Defender Dennis Korsah
Exclusive: St. Johnstone Snubs Former Hearts of Oak Defender Dennis Korsah
In a surprise move, Scottish Premiership side St. Johnstone has opted out of signing former Hearts of Oak defender Dennis Nkrumah Korsah, citing sufficient depth at left-back following the recent signing of Barry Douglas.
According to sources close to the club, manager Simo Valakari made the decision after assessing his team’s defensive options, concluding that Korsah’s services were no longer needed.
Korsah’s Uncertain Future
The Ghanaian defender, a free agent since leaving Accra Hearts of Oak, was heavily linked to St. Johnstone but will now have to explore alternative options. Industry insiders suggest a potential return to the Ghana Premier League, with several top-tier clubs already expressing interest.
Valakari’s Verdict
“We appreciate Dennis’s interest in joining our team, but with Barry Douglas on board, we feel our left-back position is well-covered,” Valakari explained. “We wish Dennis the best in his future endeavors.”
Douglas’s Impact
The signing of experienced left-back Barry Douglas has significantly bolstered St. Johnstone’s defensive lineup, rendering Korsah’s potential arrival redundant.
What’s Next for Korsah?
As Korsah searches for a new club, his representatives are reportedly in talks with Ghana Premier League outfits. A return to his homeland could provide the platform for the talented defender to reignite his career.
