Omeruo Transfer Money Rocks Sunshine Stars

NPFL club Sunshine Stars are in serious danger of a ban by world football governing body FIFA after it was alleged they paid part of the subsequent transfer money for Kenneth Omeruo’s switch to Leganes from Chelsea to a party not involved with the player, BSNSports.com.ng reports. According to a source, there is tension in the club after ASC Jobisports Academy alleged that they paid a Lagos-based agent a percentage from Omeruo’s transfer to La Liga even when he was not the one who gave Sunshine Stars the player. “Sunshine Stars agreed in writing with Jobisports, the source for Omeruo, they will pay them 40% of the subsequent transfer of the player. This is documented,” stated the source.

“JobiSports have a good, air-tight case and have taken their case to the Nigeria Football Federation before they head to FIFA court.”
