Ajiboye drags Warri Wolves to NFF

Goalkeeper Dele Ajiboye has taken his fight to quit Warri Wolves and also be paid his outstanding salaries and other entitlements by the club, reports Africanfootball.com.

The former Nigeria Olympic goalkeeper has agreed to join Plateau United in the upcoming Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) season after the expiration of his contract last season with the Seasiders.

However, Wolves reportedly said they will only release him if he agreed to forfeit his five months’ salaries as well as a clearance fee the Warri club had promised to pay him.

Ajiboye has now taken his fight to save his career to the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) players’ status and arbitration committee.

“I fully served the club (Warri Wolves FC) even when nursing injuries and pains throughout the season, but in the end they failed to fulfill all the promises they made to me before I joined them,” he wrote in his petition to the NFF, which was also copied to the League Management Company (LMC).

“They owe me five months’ salaries which is N2.5million and also our initial agreement for my clearance which is N3million,” the former Shooting Stars Sports Club (3SC) keeper said.

The 2007 FIFA U-17 World Cup winner urged the authorities to ensure his career is not jeopardised by Warri Wolves, who should also pay him what he has worked for.
