The Spanish Soccer Players Association (SSPA) has risen to defend Super Eagles Star, Kelechi Nwakali, who had his contract terminated by SD Huesca.
SSPA issued a statement via their official website to defend the Nigerian.
After communicating with the Huesca Sports Society on Tuesday, April 5, about the end of contractual relationship it had with the soccer player, Kelechi Nwakali, the Spanish Soccer Players Association stated the following:
“SD Huesca notified the player that a disciplinary file was opened on February 4, 2022 due to events that have led to the club’s unilateral decision to fire the player”.
“Since the enormous defenseless that this situation was causing in the affected person became known, he made himself available to Kelechi Nwakali and defended his legitimate interests”.
Nwakali earlier this week broke the silence on his contract termination by Huesca and accused the Spanish division two club of ending his time at the club due to his decision to represent Nigeria.
“I have kept silent out of respect for Huesca fans and my teammates, but I will no longer suffer in silence.
Ruben Garcia put on me not to go to AFCON due to it ‘not being an important tournament’.
He told me if I go to AFCON,I will not play for Huesca again.
For months the club has been abusing it’s power to bully me into signing a new contract,” Kelechi’s Tweet read in part.
