Off-The-Field Issues Pile Up For Club Africain As Ex-African Champions Are Summoned by Fifa

Club African have had more engagements off the field than on it as complaints filed against them heap up in Luzern.

The Tunisian premier League outfit cut shadows of their former selves all beginning with a transfer embargo slapped on them by counterparts and player representatives.

Clubs found wanting of violations are ducked off points and face fines – a thing not uncommon with the Tunisian club who at one point had to wave a begging bowl seeking donations from fans to offset bills and sanction monies.

Two top Algerian sides are at loggerheads with the giants of Tunis for registration of ineligible players.

Sport Youtha Saura are the last side paid over 150,000 USD for the illegal poaching of player Ibrahim Farha who’s not eligible to don the red and white stripes of Africain pending the lifting of the current transfer embargo.

Off the field distractions seem to be playing its part in the league as Club Africain occupy just little above the drop zone in the table standings.
