The management of Rangers International FC of Enugu has sent eight attackers in the main team to Team B and resolved to source for quality attackers to beef up the squad in a bid to stop the not-too-impressive run in the ongoing season.
The technical crew and management announced the decision after an emergency meeting at the club’s camp in Enugu, stressing that it was part of the ‘Performance Based’ agreement signed by both parties.
Also, all attackers in the team have been placed on 40 percent less of their monthly salary until they improve on their scoring ability.
Speaking on Tuesday, Rangers General Manager, Prince Davidson Owumi, explained that the situation in the team led to the measures so as to bring out the best from the players. “I must say that this measure of sending some of you to the ‘B’ team is for you to catch up with the form we saw in you and engaged you in the first place. We need to start winning games and move out from where we currently occupy to where we rightly belong,” he said.
In the meantime, the club has started the hunt for quality strikers to beef up the squad to effectively challenge for honours in the remaining part of the season.
Daily Sports that the seven-time Nigeria league champions started the season on a slow pace that has seen them win one game, draw three and lose five of the nine matches played in the NPFL 2019/2020 season to occupy the rear of the 20 teams log.
Rangers will today, Wednesday, January 8, 2020, trade tackles with neighbours FC Ifeanyiubah in a Matchday 13 NPFL 2019/2020 fixture inside the main bowl of Nnamdi Azikiwe Stadium, Enugu. Victory the sole target for the Coach Salisu Yusuf wards after losing 1-2 to Heartland FC of Owerri in Okigwe at the weekend.
