Exclusive: Emem Eduok Claims He Only Signed Sarpsborg Contract But FAILED To Read Information, Blames Bright Ogude Of A&B Academy
Published: January 05, 2015Nigeria B international Emem Eduok has finally opened up regarding the controversies surrounding the contracts he signed with Sarpsborg 08 and Esperance.
While it is done and dusted that Emem Eduok has agreed personal terms with the Tunisia powerhouse, the attacker has claimed that the contract is not yet in the bag because the Tunisia powerhouse are thrashing out financial terms with Dolphins, who claim to own his sporting and economic rights.
“I went to Norway in December, an agent took me there. I can not deny, I signed a contract with Sarpsborg, but they did not meet Dolphins to ask for my clearance. How can they tell me I am not a player of Dolphins?
“They tried to get my ITC from the Nigeria Football Federation. NFF contacted Dolphins since I am their player and they said they did not know anything about the transfer.
“I later called the agent, Bright Ogude, I can’t involve myself in this. How can I play for Sarpsborg without an ITC?” Emem Eduok told allnigeriasoccer.com.
The Super Eagles invitee further revealed that he was instructed by Dolphins to embark on the trip to Tunisia to discuss personal terms with Esperance.
“Dolphins told me to go to Tunisia. That’s the issue, I don’t know why my name is everywhere. I shouldn’t be doing agency work and I am a player.
“What am I going to do in Norway on January 18? Am I a fool that will sign for two clubs? No, I won’t go.
“I never filled any form that I am a player of A&B Academy. Everything was done by my agent, I only signed the contract which was written in English,” Emen Eduok concluded.
The Nigeria Football Federation was about to issue an ITC to Sarpsborg but later contacted Dolphins to authenticate the transfer since he played for the club last season., according to Emem Eduok.
