“All of C.K and Milovan, once their contract was terminated, we sat with them, negotiated their exit and C.K was paid $100,000 immediately after the negotiation same as Milovan.”
However, Akonnor has quickly refuted those claims, stating the money received was not $100,000.
”I never received the kind of money the minister mentioned. I don’t want to put out how much they paid me but it was not $100,000 as the minister said,”
”My contract is still with the FA and if he likes he can go and check the agreement we had and see before making the claim and he will know that he is wrong”.
