Gor Mahia’s woes with their former foreign players appear to be far from over as the club has now been slapped with another huge bill for terminating goalkeeper Adama Keita’s contract.In July, K’Ogalo sent the Malian goalkeeper, alongside Congolese striker Yangayay Sando Sando, packing after what had been an underwhelming campaign by the pair. However, they did not follow the right channel and the veteran goalkeeper, who had already reported the club to FIFA for breach of contract returned to the world football governing body with more claims.##NAJAVA_MECA_6853967##Prior to that, the club had been ordered to pay the keeper Kes. 1,011,750 plus interest accrued over breach of contract after they failed to honor their end of the bargain in January, February, March, April, May, and June 2022. It is not yet clear if they have settled the arrears.The latest ruling from the World football governing body is set to dig into Gor Mahia’s coffers in a big way with the club set to part with Kes. 2, 951, 220.06 plus interest in salary arrears and compensation over breach of contract with the total amount set to go above the three million mark.Decision by the Dispute Resolution Chamber.The claim of the claimant, Adama Keita is partially accepted.The respondent Gor Mahia has to pay the claimant the following amounts;1) USD 1,600 as outstanding remuneration plus 5% interest p.a. as from 1 July 2022 until the date of effective payment;2) USD 1,600 as outstanding remuneration plus 5% interest p.a. as from 1 August 2022 until the date of effective payment3.

The club is currently under a transfer embargo that will be lifted in January if they pay their former players who took them to FIFA in full but could find themselves in murkier waters if they do not pay Adama within 45 days.Pursuant to art. 24 of the Regulations on the Status and Transfer of Players, if full payment (including all applicable interest) is not made within 45 days of notification of this decision, the following consequences shall apply:1. The respondent shall be banned from registering any new players either nationally or internationally up until the due amount is paid.
