Caf Champions League: Simba SC lodge formal complaint to probe Al Merrikh

Simba SC have officially lodged a complaint with Caf seeking to have Al Merrikh investigated for allegedly fielding ineligible players during their Champions League match played on Saturday.

The Msimbazi giants secured a 0-0 draw against the Sudanese outfit in their Group A match at Al-Hilal Stadium in Khartoum.

The two players were banned by the federation for six months for signing contracts with two different teams - Al Merrikh and Al Hilal - a penalty that is scheduled to expire in mid-April.
