Ghanaian Premier League giant Accra Hearts of Oak have insisted they will not sign more than six players on the transfer market for the new season. 

The 20-time Ghanaian top-tier title-winners have already been linked with close to ten players on the Ghanaian market with 2009 FIFA U20 gold medal winner Latif Salifu already captured.

But Managing Director of the former African champions Gerald Ankrah has insisted his side's transfer plan is to sign not more than six players.

"We do have some good talents but we will do some strategic recruitment. That’s not going to be more than 5-6 players because we need to maintain the cohesion with the old guys," he told Accra-based Starr FM.

Hearts bigwigs including Ankrah are expected to meet Ghana FA President Kwesi Nyantakyi next week over the transfer of pair Richard Ofori and Maxwell Barko who will cost the club around $40,000.
