South African coach Pitso Mosimane has confirmed he has not been paid his salary since January by Saudi Arabian club Al-Ahli, as was reported by TimesLIVE on Thursday.
During his interview with Saudi Arabia TV channel Al Arabiya, Mosimane revealed this was not the first time the club had failed to pay him, the technical team and players.
Despite this, Mosimane led the team to the Yelo League title and promotion to the Saudi Pro League.
“The first month, I got paid, but after the first month I had to wait for two months to get my money. [Sometimes] three months … it has been like that,” Mosimane said.
“[Since] I came here I’ve never received my salary every month. No, never since I’ve been at Al Ahli.
“We are going into the fifth month now [without getting paid]. Me and my technical team, even the players. Everybody, the last time we got there was in January.”
