Nigerian Professional Football League side, Kada City Football Club has declared one of its players, Umar Bala Mohammad AWOL (Absent Without Official Leave).
Sports247.ng reliably informs that Umar has allegedly abandoned Kada City for weeks to Belarus.
The club Chief Executive Officer, Ekene Adams in a statement, said the footballer disappeared without the knowledge and approval of the management.
He noted that Umar was a regular member of the team and played their Week Two contest against Abia Warriors.
Ekene informed the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) that the player had not been issued any formal clearance or release.
The club management said the player is still under contract till December, 2022, adding that the authority will not hesitate to invoke the full consequence of any violation on any individual or club both home and abroad found liable in whatever form.
“We’ve not set our eyes on Umar after the game with Abia Warriors. We’re surprised to hear he has signed with Belarus First Division side, through an agent Haruna Babangida former Nigerian intl and former FC Barcelona player.
“we urge all football club and stakeholders especially NFF to note that Umar remains a bonafide player of Kada City and he has existing contract till 2022.”
