I want to go to Africa with Hearts — Sam Yeboah

Accra Hearts of Oak striker, Sam Yeboah, says he will relish an appearance in Africa in the rainbow shirt.

The striker, who had stints in Europe before joining the Phobians, told the Graphic Sports in an interview that one moment that he would cherish in his football career would be to play for Hearts in either the Champions League or the CAF Confederation Cup before he retired.

The Phobians won the Champions League and CAF Confederation Cup in 2000 and 2004 respectively, and Yeboah hoped the club would make yet another appearance in Africa next year.

Since joining the Phobians stable this season, the 29-year-old has been instrumental in the good run of the club so far this season, scoring two and providing a series of assists to win crucial games.  

The former Hapoel Tel Aviv striker disclosed that it had always been his dream to play in Africa before he left the shores of Ghana.

"Even before I left the country for Hapoel Kfar-Saba in 2004, I had already made up my mind to play in any of the Africa's top competitions before I retire from active football. 

If we can really continue to play this good until the end of the season, I don’t see why we cannot qualify to play in Africa and that will be a dream come true for me" he added.
