Published: February 08, 2016
Nigeria international Michael Babatunde has threatened to terminate his contract with Moroccan club Raja Casablanca over unpaid wages.
And it has now been suggested that the attacking midfielder would have turned to a beggar in the North African country if not for the presence of his close friend and Super Eagles teammate Osaguona Ighodaro at the club.
“Babatunde has been angry that he has not been paid any fee or salary since he joined Raja, they have seized his passport so he can’t leave the country, ” a top source told allnigeriasoccer.com.
“His Moroccan agent is trying to convince him to stay. Osaguona played together with him in the Super Eagles, he has been supporting him financially.”
Babatunde penned a three-and-a-half-year deal with Raja Casablanca in the January transfer window.
