Local football body Fufa on Wednesday admitted they have not paid Uganda Cranes coach Micho Sredojevic for the last three months.
Micho replaced Scotsman Bobby Williamson in May and has since overseen the team’s qualification to next year’s African Nations Championship (Chan). But he has in the same period failed to guide the Cranes to the 2014 World Cup qualification play-offs.
Word had done rounds that Fufa owed Micho three months in salaries which the Serb had adamantly refused to discuss with the media.
But speaking at the weekly press briefing in Mengo on Wednesday, Fufa spokesman Rogers Mulindwa admitted that they are yet to pay Micho’s wages.
”It is true his payments are not up-to-date,” said Mulindwa, adding, “He is demanding one or two months but the situation is not alarming.
“We have been in a transitional process because of the change in leadership but everything is being sorted out.”
Micho tried to play down the tale saying he is focused on defending the upcoming Cecafa and preparing for Chan.
“It is true that I have not been paid but I am a professional who loves my job very much and I am very loyal,” said the Serb.
“I am extremely focused and concentrating on the Cecafa and Chan championships. The federation will do their part and I also have to do mine.”
