Some members of the 2009 Black Satellites squad have rejected payments on their matured investment for winning the World Cup in Egypt.
All 21 members of the playing body were invited by SAS Finance Group through the Ghana Football Association to receive their matured investment which was done 15 years ago.
The investment of GHS 10,000.00 had yielded a GHS 60,000.00 interest after 15 years resulting in each player being entitled to GHS 70,000.000.
While some players have already received their payments, Joy Sports understands others have turned down the payment as they seek explanation for what they deem unsatisfactory accounting of the investment.
Captain of the winning squad, Andre Ayew, and Emmanuel Agyemang Badu are among a host of players who are seeking clarification on the settled amount.
“I went there (SAS office) for explanation. We had a fruitful conversation and I had to inform my entourage to get the necessary advice,” he said on Angel TV.
“I can confirm that Andre Ayew has given the power of attorney to Fiifi Tackie not to go for his money. I can also halt mine then we ask the necessary questions.
“When I went there, I asked them the kind of investment they did for us and I also asked them about the interest rate at the time the investment was being done.”
A total of GHS 210,000.00 was made on behalf of all 21 players called up for the tournament.
