Wahab Bankole, Sunshine Stars of Akure media officer, has denied insinuation of low morale among players of the club. Bankole spoke against the backdrop of the allegation of low morale in the club resulting in poor performance.

He denied all that in an interview with Independent on Wednesday, saying that there was a clear-cut financial plan for the players, saying such money would only be released when the players start winning matches.

“Whoever said the players are low in morale is just being economical with the truth; we have good financial remuneration for the players.
“How can they earn match bonuses when they have not won any match? The thing is called winning bonus and will only be earned when they win matches,” he explained.

He said that before every match, the management keeps the players’ bonuses intact; saying such was not paid since they have not been winning.

“We keep their money even before every match. If they win against Giwa at the weekend, they will be given their entitlements immediately, so there is no basis alleging that we owe them, or they are not performing because they are less motivated.

It would be recalled that the team is yet to win a match in the five weeks old Nigeria Professional Football League, a development that led to the sack of former coach, Samson Unuanel.
The club had drawn two matches at home losing same away. Consequently, the former CAF Champions League campaigner is placed 19th on the log.
