FC Ifeanyiubah players who are pressing for their unpaid five months’ salaries have said they are now counting on the League Management Company (LMC) to make sure they get their dues, AOIFootball.com reports.
Former NPFL star Victor Ezeji, tried to meet with the FC Ifeanyiubah players and officials on Monday in Nnewi, but the meeting was botched after thugs barred the players’ lawyers from being part of this parley.
“We believe the LMC will come out clearly and boldly to say enough is enough, that the players should not be taken for granted anymore and that be paid what they are entitled to,” one of the players said.
“The club have turned us into beggars and that cannot be accepted,” added another affected player.
“The LMC have done well so far, but they ought to use our own case to make it clear that contracts be respected in this league.
Top officials of the ‘billionaire’ Nnewi club have insisted they are not indebted to the players and that they are not even aware of Monday’s botched parley.
