Ghana football cannot make a player rich- Yahaya Mohammed

Published on: 10 April 2020

Aduana Stars hitman Yahaya Mohammed has insisted that Ghana football cannot bring riches to a player and they should strive for bigger contracts abroad.

Yahaya Mohammed has been superb for the Ogya boys this season, scoring 11 goals, just one behind the deadly Victorien Adebayor.

The former Kotoko man also admitted that the club owners are spending a lot on their teams.

“Ghana Football cannot make a player rich. If I ask Aduana to pay me Ghc 2000 a month and $5,000 signing on fee then I am not been fair to Aduana because of the economy here in Ghana”, he told Happy FM.

“The club owners are spending a lot on the teams.  They spend on transportation, hotels bill, winning bonuses, salaries and wages and many others. Mostly teams spend close to Ghc 30,000 just for three points on match days. Most at times I think of the stakeholders”.

“You must kill yourself and play because the offers will come and that is  where you will make a lot of money:.

“If you a player here in Ghana, you have to charge based on the economy. You have to look at the economy and charge the club”, he added.
