Wazito FC banned by Fifa from signing players after breach of contracts

Football Kenya Federation Premier League side Wazito FC have been banned from signing players in the forthcoming three transfer windows after failure to compensate players who were released.

In October 2020, The Fifa Dispute Resolution Chamber ruled Ghanaian forward Paul Acquah, Togolese defender Issofou Bourhana, Ugandan midfielder Mansoor Safi Agu, Liberian Augustine Otu, and DR Congo forward Piscas Muhindo were illegally dismissed and deserved compensation.

As a result, the 2018/19 National Super League champions were to compensate them in excess of six million shillings for breach of contract. But nothing has been done prompting the world football organising body to crack the whip.
