Real Tamale United (RTU) head coach, Abdul Mumin Abdulai, has revealed that his players boycotted Wednesday’s training session over five months unpaid salaries.

Abdul Mumin also disclosed that he has not been paid for nearly a year now and called for urgent help to salvage the situation of the club.

RTU are currently bottom of the Ghana Premier League after 19 matches into the season, winning just one of their last seven matches.

“The players boycotted yesterday's training because they haven't received their salaries in nearly five months, plus some unpaid,” he told Kumasi-based Akoma FM.

“Me, as the coach, I have not been paid in nearly a year. Our situation is dire, and we require immediate help.”

The Northern Blues will next take on Heart of Lions on Sunday in match week 20 of the Ghana Premier League at the Kpando Sports Stadium.

It is unclear at the moment whether the players will honour the match if their salaries are not paid.
