Berekum Chelsea, a Ghana Premier League outfit, is on the verge of appointing former Great Olympics coach Annor Walker as their new head coach.

This decision comes as the club seeks a replacement for Christopher Ennin, who is reportedly set to join Hearts of Oak as an assistant coach.

Currently occupying sixth place on the Ghana Premier League table with 27 points after 18 matches, the Berekum-based club views Walker as the ideal candidate to lead the team in the second half of the campaign.

Annor Walker, who previously managed the Black Galaxies and Samartex, is currently without a club following the conclusion of his tenure with Great Olympics, which was marked by mixed performances.

Confirming the negotiations, Walker stated, "It’s true. I have had talks with Berekum Chelsea, and a move to the club is imminent.

An agreement has been reached between us, and I’m just waiting for confirmation from them," as quoted by footballghana.

Walker has a history with Berekum Chelsea, having been approached by the club in 2011 to join their technical team.

His previous stint saw him play a crucial role in the team's campaign in the 2012 CAF Champions League, where they qualified for the group stages in their maiden appearance.

The appointment of Annor Walker is expected to bring a fresh perspective to Berekum Chelsea as they aim to improve their standing in the league.
