FIFPRO, the global umbrella body for professional football players, has issued a forceful statement condemning the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) for failing to pay Super Falcons players.
FIFPRO said in a statement released on Tuesday that it is terrible that the Super Falcons’ players have to chase the NFF for money owed to them.
We reported that the Super Falcons considered the option of boycotting their opening game at the World Cup against Canada before the NFF prevailed upon them to avoid such a national embarrassment on a global stage.
