TRW given 48 hours to settle unpaid salaries of players and coaches
KELANTAN football club The Real Warriors (TRW) has been given two days to settle unpaid salaries for nearly 20 players and coaches from last season. Former head coach Rezal Zambery Yahya stated the ultimatum followed three rejected settlement offers deemed unfair by the affected staff. Rezal criticised TRW's proposals, which included halving monthly salaries, match fees of RM500 to RM1,000, or instalments of RM200 monthly until debts are cleared. 'These offers are unreasonable. We are not buying appliances on instalment. We've submitted counter-proposals and expect a decision by Tuesday,' he said during a press conference. He also highlighted disparities in TRW's payments, noting imported players received salaries to avoid FIFA sanctions while local players remained unpaid despite fulfilling commitments. Multiple discussions since February failed to yield resolutions, prompting plans to escalate the matter to the Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) Status Committee if deadlines are missed. Rezal further disclosed unresolved personal debts by KDN FC president Rozi Muhammad, who allegedly owes hundreds of thousands ringgit used to support the club last season. 'I sourced funds to assist the team during crises. Now lenders are pursuing me. Rozi must settle these debts pending since September,' he added. – Bernama

TRW Given Two Days To Settle Salary Arrears Of Players, Coaches
KOTA BHARU, July 13 (Bernama) -- Kelantan, The Real Warriors (TRW) have been given two days until Tuesday to resolve the issue of salary arrears of nearly 20 players and the team's coaches for last season. Former TRW head coach, Rezal Zambery Yahya said the decision was made after three settlement offers previously submitted by TRW management were considered biased and unprofessional. "The three offers included a half-salary cut every month, a payment between RM500 and RM1,000 for each match, or an instalment payment of RM200 per month until the debt is settled. bootstrap slideshow "For us, the offer does not make sense. We are not a water purifier that pays RM200 per month for 10 years. So we have put forward several counter-offers and given them until Tuesday to decide,' he said at a press conference here, today. Rezal also questioned TRW's action of continuing to pay the salaries of imported players to avoid transfer restrictions by the Federation of International Football Associations (FIFA), while local players who train and play until the end of the season continue to be mistreated. He said several series of discussions had been held before but the TRW management was seen not serious about resolving the salary arrears since February to April. If TRW still fails to settle the arrears within the specified period, Rezal said an official complaint would be submitted to the Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) Status Committee for further action. Meanwhile, Rezal also revealed that KDN FC president Rozi Muhammad had still not settled his personal debt amounting to nearly hundreds of thousands of ringgit which was used to assist the club's management last season, including paying players' salaries. 'When the team was facing financial problems, I was looking for money to help the team. "Now people are chasing me to pay the loan. I urge him to take responsibility for settling the debt which has been outstanding since September last year," he said.
