Coronavirus: TPLB struggles to fund Mainland Premier League clubs

The Tanzania Premier League Board (TPLB) has revealed they have no funds to assist or lend to clubs in their various leagues.

Immediately after it was confirmed there is a possibility for the leagues (Mainland Premier League, First Division League, and Second Division League) to resume, various teams have come up to declare they have no financial muscle to proceed unless they are assisted with a certain amount.

TPLB Chairman Stephen Mguto said they hardly have money to either assist or lend to the clubs, which are each facing a financial crisis prior to the recommencement of the games.
