Al-Jazeera Club players have yet to return training for the
seventh consecutive day; despite several attempts by the club’s ad-hoc
administration to persuade the team to accept half their salaries.
The temporary committee’s efforts to convince the players to
receive only part of their dues were made ahead of Al-Jazeera’s match against
Al-Wahdat; scheduled for April 4, as part of the Super Cup.
Covid-inspired financial repercussions have also affected
other clubs, including Al-Ramtha Club players who refused to attend training on
Saturday due to their months-long financial demands, before the administration
eventually succeeded in convincing them to resume training with promises to
work on paying their dues soon.
Al-Faisaly Club players are also pressuring administration
to receive their delayed wages. The issue remains unresolved.
Maan Club players called on fans to support the club’s fund
by offering tickets at low prices to help cover the team’s expenses and pay
part of the players and staffs’ salaries.
The Jordan Football Association has already released the
match schedule for the home stage of the 2021 pro league that is set to start
on April 8.
The first leg of the league will see two matches, where
Shabab Al-Ordun meet Salt on the Amman Stadium, and Sahab meet Faisaly in the
Prince Mohammad Stadium on April 10.
