Jammerbugt, which plays in the third best Danish football league, has been declared bankrupt by the Players’ Association.
This is what Allan Reese, deputy director of the Spillerforeningen, tells P4 Nordjylland.
– We have tried for many months to get the club to pay, and we have also succeeded in some respects.
– But we also owe very large sums to players who have not received a salary at all since January, and we also have a player who has not received a penny in salary at all, says Allan Reese to P4 Nordjylland.
This is because the club’s German owner, Klaus-Dieter Müller, has not paid salaries to a number of the team’s players. It is about several hundreds of thousands of kroner.
It is the treatment of two players in particular that has caused the Players’ Association to act.
– We had reached a settlement with Klaus that the two players should have been paid at the end of June. It hasn’t happened. We have been in dialogue with Klaus, and maybe the money will come, maybe not.
– But we no longer feel that we can be a model for that when we are dealing with players who have lost so much money on what they thought was a contract, says Allan Reese.
The final payment deadline for Klaus-Dieter Müller to settle his debt should have been Wednesday, but the deadline has been postponed until next week.
