Highlanders coach Erol Akbay, who leaves for his home country on Monday, has said he will only return to the club next year if Bosso can pay his 2017 salary.
Speaking at the club’s press conference yesterday, Akbay said:
Someone asked me if I know that the club’s sponsorship is coming to an end and I said yes. He went on to ask if I’ll return if my salary is not paid and I asked him if he will go to work without being paid and he said no. It’s too far from home to come here for nothing.
Responding to the club’s ability to take care of Akbay’s salary, Highlanders’ secretary-general Emmet Ndlovu said:
The question is not about the BancABC sponsorship coming to an end, but about Highlanders paying his salary. There is no way we can bring him down here without his salary. If you see him coming here next year, know we have the money.
