“This is not the first time the player is indulging in this act of indiscipline and unfortunately for him this time around, the head coach saw his disrespectful action toward his assistants and recommended his sack,” Dakup said

The media officer said the decision to terminate Aliyu Salawudeen’s contract was taken after the training session, insisting that the head coach had always maintained that there was no room for indiscipline in his team.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the dismissed player joined the club this season from Emmanuel Amuneke Academy, Lagos after he featured for the national under-20  team in last season’s World Youth Championship. (NAN)
