The Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) and club
owners have agreed to pay each registered players a minimum fee of
150,000 Naira monthly (about $940).
This is in line with the recent abolishment of sign-on fees in the league.
The revelation was part of several “mutually beneficial” conclusions
drawn in Monday’s meeting between the League Management Company (LMC)
and the club managers.
The issue of bank guarantee of 100 million Naira by each of the 20
participating clubs in the NPFL- and other basic requirements to be
fulfilled for club registration ahead of the new season- was also
addressed during the Abuja meeting.
According to
MTNfootball.com,
several clubs including Kaduna United, Shooting Stars and Heartland
have already cancelled sign-on fees and now pays bumper monthly
salaries.
The new NPFL season kicks off in the weekend of February 23.
