LEAGUE champions Dynamos could be faced with an embarrassing lawsuit involving the club’s groundsman.
MUKUDZEI CHINGWERE SPORTS CORRESPONDENT
Weston Kachote, who maintains the club’s training ground Zimphos, alleges that the Harare giants have reneged on its contractual agreement for the last two seasons.
Kachote, who earns $400, claims that the club owes him 18 months’ salary and has engaged his legal team to force the club to settle the bill.
“I have engaged my lawyers. They wrote a letter to the club yesterday (Tuesday) asking them to pay within a period of seven days. I will not say much, but will give you more details after those seven days or after the club has responded,” Kachote said yesterday.
However, the club says it is not yet aware of the development. “I am not yet aware of that. It has not yet come to my office,” club secretary-general Webster Chikengezha said.
It’s shocking how the club, which grossed over $200 000 in prize money in the last two seasons after winning almost all the cup competitions on offer, could have failed to pay their groundsman and now faces an embarrassing law suit.
Meanwhile, Zimbabwe’s only representative in Caf Cup competitions this year FC Platinum have released their squad for the 12th edition of the Caf Confederations Cup.
