Cash-trapped Bolton Wanderers cant pay Ameobi, team mates
English Championship team Bolton Wanderers have admitted difficulties in paying Shola Ameobi and his teammates for the past month.
The team said in an official statement that the first team playing squad are yet to receive their wages for the month of November.
This is due to the ongoing situation surrounding the club’s ownership off the field.
Trevor Birch, recently appointed as adviser to the Bolton Wanderers board and owner, said: “This is due to a short-term funding issue. We are working hard behind the scenes and hope to have this resolved in a quick and timely manner.”
Bolton Wanderers are a massive £172.9m in debt and Birch has been appointed to ease a takeover, from owner Eddie Davies. Davies is reported to be willing to take responsibility for the entire debt, in the hope it will help a new owner to come in as soon as possible.
Shola Ameobi signed a short-term contract at the end of October and has made four appearances so far, scoring one goal.
