General Manager of Accra Great Olympics, Eric Alagidede, says the club is determined to make a bold statement against Hearts of Oak when the two sides clash in the 2025 Democracy Cup.
The fixture, scheduled for Friday, August 29, at the Accra Sports Stadium, will mark the Wonder Club’s first major appearance since their relegation from the Ghana Premier League at the end of the 2023/24 season.
Alagidede, who was recently appointed as the club’s general manager, believes the match offers a platform to reassert the club’s stature as one of Ghana’s elite teams.
“We are preparing very well and will make our first statement in the upcoming Democracy Cup,” he said in an interview with Asempa FM.
Despite dropping to the Access Bank Division One League, Alagidede insists Olympics remain the third biggest football institution in the country after Hearts of Oak and Asante Kotoko.
The Democracy Cup, launched in 2024 as a parliamentary initiative, is designed to promote national unity and democratic values through football. Last year’s edition saw Kotoko defeat Hearts in the inaugural final.
