Former Accra Hearts of Oak defender, Edward Agyemang Duah, popularly known as Rambo, has revealed that the club still owes him and his former teammates money received from FIFA as compensation for not participating in the FIFA Club World Cup.

The club had promised players a share of the compensation money but, according to Duah, the players have not been fully paid.

Duah, who played for Okwawu United, Asante Kotoko, Ashantigold, and the Black Stars of Ghana, recalled that the players were initially given $3,000 each but were informed that more money was owed to them.

He mentioned that several former players, including Amankwah Mireku and Osei Kuffour, have also raised this issue.

"This matter it is still there our money is still with Hearts if you ask all the players our money is still with Hearts they have paid us. We would have been the first time to go to the World Club championship it didn't happen," he told Ernest Brew Smith Show on Youtube.

"FIFA compensated us management also acknowledged that the money has arrived we were given something you will be there and they will call you and give you 3,000 dollars that time.

"They let us know our money is with them we did some paper on it but who is saying it for you some of the boys when they meet they ask Amankwah Mireku ask, Osei Kuffour was interviewed I think by Dan in America he raised it,"
