NPFL: Sunshine Stars Get Partial Reprieve On New Players Restriction



The imposed order restricting Sunshine Stars FC from fielding its new players has been partially relaxed by the League Management Company (LMC) on Friday.



Last Sunday in Jos Sunshine Stars were forced to make do with an entire team of 11 old players in a league meeting with Plateau United as the LMC enforced its ruling over litigation issues bordering on the Club's alleged indebtedness to its former personnel.



However following renewed efforts made by the team's management and other stakeholders to address the issue the league body has agreed to lift the ban partially with only seven of the Club's new players now eligible for Sunday's match against Kano Pillars.



Ondo State Football Agency (ODSFA) chairman and Club president, Otunba Tajudeen Akinyemi who confirmed the development to Sunshine Stars FC media revealed that for delays in response from some concerned parties the case would have been fully resolved by now.



 "Yes LMC only allow us to use seven (less than half) of our new players for our next match. The situation would have been fully resolved but their have been delays in response from some parties we are to reach agreement with.



 "Since we came on board we have been fulfilling our financial obligations to our personnel. The issue on ground has nothing to do with us but the past administrations but we have the will to address it. You know the system is continuous and the situation is already under control." Akinyemi assured.



The Sunshine Stars versus Kano Pillars Nigeria Professional Football League Match Day eight tie comes up at the Ondo Sports Complex, Akure.
