Kang seeks BFF's help, will go to AFC soon
Sports Reporter
Korean coach Man Young Kang has finally sought the help of Bangladesh Football Federation (BFF) to get his dues from Mohammedan Sporting Club.Kang, who was appointed Mohammedan coach in December 2004, was sacked by the club in late March this year. Two Korean footballers Kim Tae Young and Kim Jae Woo, were also sent back but Kang stayed back to receive their salaries and air fares. Kang has received a part payment and the club still owe the three Koreans an amount of Tk 4,51,000. Kang handed over a letter to the BFF on Wednesday night lodging complaints against Mohammedan. "I have asked for BFF's consideration to solve the matter," Kang told the Daily Star over phone. "I have tried to contact the club officials repeatedly but they have not responded. I have been struggling to live in Dhaka because I hardly have any money," said Kang, who was initially contracted for one year. "I will send another letter to the Asian Football Confederation within one or two days about this," added the former Bangladesh national team coach. Top BFF officials were not in the country to make comments. The Dhaka heavyweights, in turmoil following disastrous results, have already brought a Nigerian booter. Two more footballers and former Nigerian international Emeka, who played for Mohammedan in the 80s, was due to arrive in the city yesterday night as coach. It was surprising to see why Mohammedan have kept Kang waiting if they could afford bringing more foreigners.
