Tambwe: Yanga SC have paid me but I have to check my account

Amissi Tambwe has revealed Yanga SC have reached out to him stating they have paid him the money they owed him but he will only confirm it when he checks his bank account in Burundi.

The Jangwani giants were ordered by the world governing body Fifa to pay the Burundian forward Tsh43.5m accrued from sign-on fees and salaries after his unceremonious exit from the club at the end of the 2018-19 season.

Nevertheless, they did not pay the money owed right away, a move that saw Fifa hand them a ban of three years from transfer activities.
