I am open to work with any club, says free agent Yaw Preko

Yaw Preko has said he is open to work with any club in the top-flight following his departure from Medeama SC.

The former Ghana international joined the Yellow and Mauve halfway through the 2020/21 football season after Samuel Boadu left to join Hearts of Oak.

Preko was given a task to win the MTN FA Cup and secure a top-four spot for the club.

However, Medeama finished on the 5th on the league log and suffered elimination from the MTN Cup with a defeat to Hearts of Oak.

The club last week announced the exit of Preko and his assistant, Yaw Acheampong.

The 47-year-old coach admitted that things did not go as planned during his stint with Medeama but said it was a good experience.

“The future is always unknown but at the moment I am floating and I am open to any club that will bring me an offer,” he told Graphic Sports.

“It was a difficult season for everybody and for about two and half years we’ve not played the league so it was tough on the players as well.

Reflecting on his contribution to Medeama, Coach Preko admitted the team could have done better than their fifth position on the Premier League log but stated that it was generally a difficult season for all the clubs.

He explained that because Ghana had been starved of football for a long time, the fans were impatient for football and that the heightened expectation weighed heavily on the players.

Coach Preko described his stint with Medeama as a good experience but was not disappointed by the management’s decision to dispense with his services because they had chosen to go in a different direction.

“Everybody was impatient because we were enjoying the league but the toll was too much for the players but it was a good experience.

“If you want to improve you could have done better but it’s part of the job,” he said.

Meanwhile, Medeama have appointed Ignatius Osei-Fosu as the head coach of the club on a three year deal.
