GFF in talks with nation’s players to accept president’s 11 million

The Gambia Football Federation is engaged in talks with the nation’s players to accept the money the government gave them.

The president on Monday presented 11.1 million dalasis to the team manager of the Scorpions despite the players refusing to meet him. The players were unhappy with the sum and turned it down.

But according to the communication and marketing chief at GFF, there are talks between GFF and the players.

Baboucarr Camara told The Fatu Network: “The money is not only meant for the players but also the technical staff as well and the technical staff did not say anywhere they do not want the money.

“We are already engaging them and there are positive signs the players would accept the money.”
