Egyptian league minnows Smouha are set to launch a FIFA complaint against Swiss club Young Boys over the transfer of hitman Samuel Affum.Affum, Smouha’s top marksman, rescinded his contract with the Alexandria side to join Young Boys on a free transfer a few days ago.The Ghanaian cited the ‘suspension of football activity’ as an excuse behind his unilateral decision as Smouha argue that his deal expires in June 2014.“We will complain Young Boys to FIFA. Affum has no right to terminate his contract for several reasons,” Smouha vice-chairman Ismail Fayed told FilGoal.com.“First, as far as FIFA is concerned, Egyptian football is not suspended as the season should kickoff in a month.“According to FIFA rules, a player is only allowed to terminate his contract if his participation in competitive games is less than 10%, while Affum has featured in most of our games last term.“Moreover, Affum has been paid regularly until his last day with the club.”Affum, 22, has also been linked with African champions Ahli before making his sudden move to Europe.
