Warri Wolves players reject 20 per cent wages

There seems to be no light at the end of the tunnel regarding the financial crisis rocking Nigeria’s CAF Champions League campaign­ers, Warri Wolves and their players.

It was yesterday gathered from some of the players that their management of­fered them 20% of their wag­es as ‘compensation’ for the scrapped payment of ‘Sign-on fees by the LMC.The players, however, insist­ed on collecting 100 per cent.
One of the players said that the four players who collected 100,000 naira each after their meeting with officials of the club at the Delta State Govern­ment House in Asaba were a letdown.
Itoya Kelvin, Goodluck Ona­mado, and Azubuike Egwe­kwue were three of the players confirmed to have attended the meeting in Asaba on Tues­day.
“The club didn’t pay our sign-on fees at the start of the season which they now claim are accumulated wages, and despite that we finished sec­ond.
“Now they gave the players who attended the meeting 20% of their accumulated wages for the year.
“There was an agreement among the players, but now they’ve gone against their word,” the player lamented
