Rumor: Kenichi Demands New Deal

There are rumors that Kenichi Yatsuashi is demanding a review of his current contract and a new $5,000/month deal. The rumor has it that the 'King of Sushi tactics' wants his two-year contract to be terminated at the end of the season.

The identity of the talebearer cannot be disclosed. He revealed the information below to a group of reporters.

“When he first signed the contract to coach Hearts, he agreed to take home $1,600 a month until Togbe intervened and asked that the package be enhanced with a $400 addition to the salary.

We still can’t understand why Kenichi wants a new contract for only one year after he had signed a two-year contract to coach Hearts"

He said since Kenichi took over, the club has been incuring miscellaneous expenses. Citing an example, he said;

"Kenichi had always insisted that the club travelled two days ahead of their league matches thereby compelling the club to incur additional cost."

An Accra Hearts of Oak representative [Vicent Sowah, Head of Strategic Committee] was contacted. But he did not comment on the matter.

“We don’t have financial problems at this stage and I can tell you that Togbe had released another GH¢120,000 to settle our financial obligations" he said.
