Heartland are closing in on appointing Emmanuel Amunike as their new head coach.
Understand the former Tanzania national team and Nigerian U-17 manager will take over next season, provided Heartland complete the necessary paperwork to replace FA Beyond Limits in the top flight. Amunike will not coach in the NNL.
The Naze Millionaires are prepared to break the bank to keep themselves in the Premier League and ensure Amunikeโs smooth tenure in the South East.
Five-time league champions Heartland are making a bold step to return to their glory days.
This comes as a huge surprise given the clubโs dire condition last season, largely caused by government interference.
