I NEVER ASKED NFF TO PAY MY TEAM-MATES IN DOLLARS – MIKEL OBI

Super Eagles captain, John Mikel Obi, has refuted stories emanating that he demanded that his team-mates be paid their bonuses and allowances in dollars.

This week, some reports stated that a top Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) source, revealed that the Chelsea midfielder asked for the squad to be rewarded in foreign currency.
However on Thursday, Mikel Obi took to the Eagles’ official Twitter page to deny those stories.
He quoted as saying.

I never granted any such interview and the team had not made that kind of demand at any time to the football federation.
