Elly Kalekwa: We have not paid Sofapaka players for two months

Sofapaka President Elly Kalekwa has admitted that they haven't paid their players’ salaries for the last two months.

Initial reports indicated that the 2009 league champions have not paid players the whole of this year, which the administrator has denied.

In his interview with Goal, Kalekwa said title sponsors Betika slashed their sponsorship package greatly, something which affected the day-to-day running of the club.

“It is not true that we have not paid our players since December, we owe them just a two months’ salary which we hope to pay soon" Kalekwa told Goal.
