Batambuze rejects Gor Mahia's Ksh1.8m settlement plan, wants Fifa to effect transfer sanction

The football governing body gave the club the green light to come up with a way to clear debts with their former stars

Ugandan full-back Shafik Batambuze has rejected Gor Mahia's settlement plan for the Ksh1.83 million owed to him by the FKF Premier League club.

The defender is among the players and coaches K'Ogalo owes before Fifa allowed the local giants to come up with a method of clearing the outstanding debts, only for Batambuze to reject it and demand the world-governing body activate the transfer ban.

Rejected Settlement

"You may recall that you were categorically informed that the player regrettably rejected the settlement proposals stipulated in the memorandum of understanding stating that Fifa had already issued a decision and enforcement of the same decision had already commenced," read the letter from Batambuze's lawyer to Gor Mahia as per the club's portal.
