Scandal at CAN: Nigerian footballers refused to travel due to unpaid wages

Nigeria’s national football team has sparked scandal at the Africa Cup of Nations after players refused to travel to their quarter-final match against Algeria over unpaid wages and bonuses.

The “Super Eagles” have so far been one of the most pleasant surprises of the continental championship. After a flawless group stage, in the round of 16 they convincingly defeated Mozambique with a score of 4:0, showing great form on the field. However, off the field, things seem much more difficult.

According to the information of the portal Nigeria Storiesthe players and the coaching staff are still waiting for the bonus payment for the victories in the previous matches. “The team remains focused but will not train or travel to Marrakesh on Thursday until the issue is resolved,” the report said.

The quarter-final match between Algeria and Nigeria is scheduled for Saturday, and the situation within the Nigerian national team further raises tensions before the continuation of the African Cup of Nations. The Nigeria Football Federation is now under pressure to resolve the issue urgently so that the national team can continue the competition without further complications.
