We have not signed Sulley Muntari - Hearts

Ghana Premier League giants, Accra Hearts of Oak have denied media reports that the club has signed former Inter Milan and AC Milan midfielder Sulley Muntari.

Last Friday, some media reports claimed the 35-year-old free-agent had joined the Phobians on a two-year deal.

However, Hearts in a Tweet said the player who periodically trains with the club is "a great player and a friend of the club".

"Hearts of Oak is the Premier club in Ghana and will continue to set the standards, we, therefore, urge our supporters not to rely on information unless it comes from our official handles."

Muntari has also had stints with Udinese and Pescara in Italy, Spanish side Deportivo La Coruna, Ittihad in Saudi Arabia and Portsmouth in England where he won the FA Cup in 2008.

The midfielder, who featured for Ghana at 2006, 2010 and 2014 World Cup tournaments, won the Champions League with Inter Milan in 2010.

At the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil, Muntari was handed an indefinite suspension by the Ghana FA for allegedly slapping a management member, Moses Armah – and damaging property at the Black Stars hotel.
