Coronavirus: Kefwa on forced pay cuts in Kenyan football

Kenya Footballers Welfare Association (Kefwa) has opposed the move by some Kenyan Premier League (KPL) clubs in forcing players to take pay cuts.

Kefwa stated they have already held talks with the KPL managing body on the same concern and in order to arrive at an amicable solution that will benefit the clubs and the players alike.

“We followed this [meeting] up on 14th April 2020 through a letter to KPL respectfully but urgently asking them to convene a video conference meeting of all the KPL club chairmens amid reports that a number of KPL clubs had already embarked on the process of forced pay cuts,” Kefwa's press statement read.
