Clashes in Kukes, players are not paid from January

The situation in the Kukës club escalates into violence. Several times the footballers have raised their voices for the back wages, they have even boycotted the training, but in the last moments the solution has been found to go down to the field.

Today, an official letter was distributed to the footballers by the club, with the name of the administrator Lavdrim Gjici, asking them to give up the financial obligations that the club has during this year, in exchange for a single salary.

Many of them did not accept this and Vesel Limaj asked for clarification, but in the ongoing debate he was physically confronted with the son of the honorary president Safet Gjici, where there were also punches. It took the intervention of others to avoid an escalation of the situation.

From footballers’ sources for Konica.al, it is learned that the footballers have not been paid since January of this year. It is over 4 months behind, while the players are thought to boycott today’s training and tomorrow’s match with Kastriot is in danger.
