Adamu who coached the sand Eagles to a second place finish at the 2018 Beach Soccer AFCON has revealed that he is still being owed three months salaries together with the allowance for last year’s world cup in which took place in the Bahamas.
He said. “Firstly I want to confirm that everyone has been paid their allowances and bonuses for the just concluded tournament and we are happy about that but I also want to call on the authorities to help clear the backlog that is being owed us which dates back to 2017. I will be very happy if that is done.”
Some player of the team have complained of improper treatment of the squad on their way to playing the AFCON in Egypt with the team given less than two weeks to prepare for the championship and has called on the federation to create a proper training and camping schedule ahead of the 2019 World Cup in Paraguay so they can achieve a great level of success.
