In a surprising twist, 1472 FC, Lagos based football club, has parted ways with their coaches. This unexpected decision has sent shockwaves through the football community, leaving fans and pundits buzzing with speculation. Let’s dive into the details and uncover the rationale behind 1472 FC’s decision.

The termination of the coaches’ contracts without pay has caused a significant uproar within the football community. Many argue that such a move is unfair and goes against standard industry practices, which typically involve providing compensation or severance packages to terminated employees. The lack of financial support for the coaches raises questions about the club’s commitment to fair treatment and the welfare of its staff.

However, terminating contracts without providing any financial support is considered highly unusual and raises ethical concerns. The coaches, who have dedicated their time and expertise to the club, may face financial hardships as a result of this abrupt decision.

The players which as a result of the unpaid salaries have protested against the management of the team due to to unpaid wages, it can be recalled that earlier this year the club owner Dozy Mmobuosi ran into financial issues with the US SEC. It is reported that the players have not received their salaries for several months, leading to frustration.
