MSC may sack Emeka
Mohammedan Sporting Club may take a tough verdict on Nigerian midfielder Emeka Christian to release him before the end of the ongoing Bangladesh League.
The MSC football committee sat in a two-hour meeting yesterday to discuss the matter after their Nigerian trio Emeka, Alamu Bukola Olaleken and Dami Emmanuel lodged a complaint against Mohammedan to the Bangladesh Football Federation regarding their unpaid wages for four to five months.
"We are not satisfied with their performance and we may release Emeka, keeping Bukola and Dami in the team," football committee chairman MA Salam said. "However the final decision will be taken after discussing the matter with MSC ad-hoc committee convenor and member secretary in the next three to four days," he added.
Salam also hinted that they would persist with Emeka if coach Maruful Haq suggests them to keep him.
He also hoped that Bukola and Dami might be seen in the match against Arambagh on April 13.
Meanwhile, the Nigerian trio opted to keep themselves out of the ongoing Bangladesh League and sat out two successive matches as they watched the games from the stands, though they have continued their training under the supervision of Maruful.
In a bid to clinch the elusive professional league title, Mohammedan this time spent crores of taka to form a strong side having roped in most of the national players, but the Motijheel-based outfit have been going through a financial crisis and are failing to pay the remunerations of their foreign recruits.
