Supersport United-bound midfield-cum-striker Anthony Laffor says
despite being told to stop using the Jomo Cosmos grounds for training
by club boss Jomo Sono, he will continue to respect his contract up to
the time it expires.
The Liberian infuriated Sono when he signed a pre-contract with United
during the transfer window at a time when the Cosmos apparently
intended selling him to Mamelodi Sundowns.
Since being told he will not feature for Cosmos again, Laffor says he
has faced an array of demoralising situations.
I have made sure that I adhere to the letter that I received from the
club
Anthony Laffor
“Since I got the letter informing me to start training with the
Under-19 team, that development team has never been training. To be
honest I haven’t seen the Under-19 team,” reveals the lanky player.
“I then took it upon myself to train on my own at the Cosmos training
grounds. But Jomo told me to stop using his grounds, and now I do my
own training though I always inform the club about my training
programme. I alternate my field sessions with going to the gym later
on in the day.
“This is because I still respect my contract while I also don’t want
to get into any kind of trouble with the club. I have made sure that I
adhere to the letter that I received from the club.
“While it is a saddening experience having to train alone, I have told
myself that I just have to be strong,” Laffor tells KickOff.com.
The temperamental yet talented 23-year-old will link up with United
next season on a three-year deal. Save & Share
