Tunisian Club President Threatens Resignation over Financial Crisis

President of a league club in Tunisia is threatening to vacate his seat over the crisis rocking his outfit, Ducor Sports can report.

Trouble is looming over Club Athletique Bizertin (CAB) with a blizzard of worries confronting the side including paying salaries, bonuses and other commitments.

Of recent, former players still owed by The Northern Sharks sued CAB to FIFA with the Luzern-based institution also threatening to come hard at them.

Amid brewing tension, Abdessalem Saidani, president of the club board, has vowed, for the umpteenth time, to resign.

A meeting was summoned between Saidani and rest of the club board including the region’s mayor aimed at resolving the situation fast expounding into an impasse.

This is not the first time Abdessalem is releasing a dispatch planning to walk away – a thing that has irked some fans who’ve gone on to question his leadership abilities, brooding over his decision to want to hop out at a distressing time.

Club Athletique Bizertin, four-time league title winners, were once the first club to have won the African trophy then dubbed CAF Cup Winners’ Cup in 1988.
