‘Players are not paid and fed well’ – J. E. Sarpong opens up on Wonders resignation

Audio By Carbonatix

Veteran coach J. E. Sarpong has linked his resignation from Eleven Wonders to the “administrative lapses” within the club.

Sarpong spent only 20 days in charge, overseeing three matches before leaving the newly promoted side ahead of Matchday 11.

Wonders remain the only winless team in the Ghana Premier League and sit bottom of the table.

"Personally, I did not want a situation where it would be said that I was the one in charge when the team got relegated from the Premier League, so I had to make a decision to leave,” he told Asempa FM.

“Players are not paid well and are not fed well. Sometimes, the players can go three days without eating.

“They have a poor transportation plan. The players are sometimes forced to use public transport, 'trotro', which is not good for the players.”

“The challenges of the club are down to administrative lapses, and so you cannot entirely blame the players for the current situation," he added.

Managerless Wonders will face Dreams FC in their Matchday 12 game on Monday, December 1.
