Wanderers’ general secretary Mike Butao has said the club feels Assu is being “misled” by his representatives. His local representative is Prince Jere

Assu has made a counter-offer to Wanderers to sign him which includes a $10 000 (about K4.5 million) signing-on fee and a $2 000 (about K1 million) monthly salary.

Butao however said “it is our intention to reach an agreement.”

The Cameroonian told MBC Radio 2FM that he was concerned that the Nomads are not responding to his offer.

“I gave them my offer, but there has been no response. They need to tell me their position because if they cannot manage then I can join other teams that are interested in my services.

“There are teams in countries such as Spain, France and even locally,” said Assu.

Assu said he was asked by Be Forward president who is based in Japan where he once played to join Mighty Wanderers in Malawi.

The 21-year-old star had stints in Japan and Denmark.

The highest paid players in the Super League earn in the range of K30 000 to K40 000 month.

Apart from Assu, the Nomads also have Nigerian trialist Olashipe James Tolulope.

  2. how special iz he? Mumbiri yampira mmalawi muno palibe adalandilako ndalama zochuluka choncho, apakile basi.

  4. As an ordinary man, I can see that the problem here is the fact that this young man is not being told the truth that we can not afford to pay him such an astronomical amount of money in Nyasaland. Someone is being economical with the truth here instead of being honest about it. Come on tell the lad the truth.

  6. Neba waithaima imeneyo,akuti anatumidwa kuchokera ku Japan kuti azathange dolayo azibwerera nayo komweko.ndiye a Zakazaka muzingomenyera iyeyotu bolayo. Usobva NEBA umafuna wakunja.

  11. He is a great Joker. Hw did he come to MW? But FAM wud you please help to improve players condition of service. Guys mk30 pa MW mmmm, anthuwa amagwira ntchito yosangalatsa dziko but i know that alot of areas need to be improved like prize money, 6 mita for a year its a mockery, bcoz teams spend more than that so really our football system should not be spared in our reforms.

  12. tamangolimbikirani xool apă osati mpira opanda phinduwo
    bvuto ndi ulesi kusafuna xool kkk ndie munyatu ndima 40 grand wo

  15. Player wa pamalawi amalandira 60 pounds pamwezi?.Kulibwino ndizisetsa pa Uk.What can somebody do with 60 pounds per month.No wonder our football players die in poverty.

  21. manoma tsopano ndeye kuti quarter ya ndalama za b4ward adya ndi iyeyo. tiyeni timulole paja walila mvula walira matope

  22. Comment….AMALAWI KUCHITITSA MANYAZI, YOU EXPECT HIM TO RECEIVE MK40;000 per month. All the way from his home to receive that much. Kupondereza kotere sikwabwino. Shame.

  24. thanks im not a futball player…mpakana K40000 a month? better an ODL primary xul tcher…

  26. Let him go and sign for barcelona. bullshit! he has been chased in south africa how can he claim to wanted in spain?

  30. Let this lad go. Does he know how many Malawians are fetching that after 30 days. Very few Assu in Malawi.

    Let him go back to Japan

  32. Koma ndiye apa ndatsimikiza kuti ndife osauka zenizeni. I never thought of it before seriously. You mean teams in our top league cannot afford to pay a player at least $2000 a month? Kuno imeneyo ndiye imene amalandira ma player mu second division. Kuno second division u get $3000 per week. Chonsecho kuno si ku UK or ku Fance ayi. Just another developing country but football means serious business. U play football at any level, u r damn rich. Zochititsa manyazi pa Nyasaland

  34. Kandalama ka beforward kaja kathera kulipira player ameneyu kikiki.
    Koma amalawi ndinudi a fodya zedi kikikikkkk

  37. Seriously, I don’t know what drug this idiot is on.

    May be he was misguided to think that our economy is at par with the likes of UAE?

    Whosoever is advising this chap should be frank with him and tell him that Wanderers let alone Malawi.cannot afford his out of this world demands. I also suggest he tries to sign for Man u or Chelsea.

    Stupid boy.

  39. Mutayeni apite ameneyo, ngat amadziwa kuti kuli ma club ku Spain or France amabwereranji kuno? Zachamba eti

  40. let him go we have got local guys who can do better than him. Why don’t just develop them? You can pay that money to our local players. Plz pave the way for him

  41. NO NEED TO DO SUCH ATING CZ IT CAN LEAD TO THE FALL OF THE TEAM CZ SOME PLAYERS CANT PERFORM WEL DUE TO FRUSTRATION OVER WAGES,SO IF WNT TO LEAVE THEN LET HIM GO.

  42. Wathawa kulima phwetekele kwanuko wati ulemelele kuno, iwenso bakha eti!! Pita ku italy or spain konko

  47. Tell the guy that Malawi Football has not reached that standard and please let him go. We’ve equally better players who may cost less and fit into team well. The team I feel is not as desperate to sign him on. Locally in Malawi there is no team which readly afford that price, it is total insanity if not total madness. Mabwana musataye nthawi kumnyengelera.

  49. Azipita Ife Sitidafike Potenga Anthu Amalipiro Ngati Amenewo. Mpaka Kuposa Ma Coach. Galu Ameneyu Azinka Basi.

  50. malawians. kuzolowera umphawitu uku. the man is simply telling you what he expects as a salary. he had no idea that this country is stinking poor and has no professional league. we are useless at football because we dont fight for our rights. thats why olo kuntchito mumangoti yes sir, tavomela 3% salary incriment sir mabwana anu akukhwasula ma sausage. ngati sayambitsa ameneyu za cash, adzayambitsa ndi ndani? nzathu ndiye uja watisiya dzulo dzuloli akusowa ndalama zopitila kuchipatala.
    be forward sells cars worldwide. this is the best opportunity for us to have a real club in malawi

  60. Which team in Malawi can pay that much? Madness, go to the other clubs you are talking about, that’s a wise thing!

  62. Nyerere yaikulu ku Balaka ndikulangiza onse dealing wth this issue to conclude that. Guy, go, we cant affort u otherwise w have already the quality that can score every game like Zakazaka, Suluma, Linje and Mapopa Kaunda. Leave this opportunist otherwise mukamutenga ngati mgelo akhumudzwitsa ma player enawa

  67. pliz let him go and discuss with Nakoma for those two players; Kumwenda and Victor. this is too much. anless if he will be giving us 3goals/per game.

  68. Kupusa eti! Mpira wake uti mpakana 4.5 million sign-fee and 1 million per month salary?Ukufuna ndalama kapena mpira?
    Poti tapeza thandizo la 70 million,basi uziti ndalama zilipo?Anzako azilandilandira chani?Isaaaaaaah!

  70. Nanga anyerenye inu mumkatokota muja musanamu sainire lero mukuti azipita aaaaaaaaah sapitatu ameneyu muthananaye basi. Nthawi wakhala kunoyi wadya zingati pajaso akuti amakhala,kugona,kudya ku Mount Soche ayi inu ndi befoward basi.pafunikansotu destabence allowance ndi airticket ayi neba Bfoward basi.

  71. let him go that is 2 much, is he going to play alone n score goskd each n game? hahahaha am a wanderers supporter bt I cant love his offer

  72. For a local team to sign a foreign player, its too ambitious. Atsu’s demands are not outrageous. That’s the standard salary for an expatriate but I saw it from the beginning that it won’t work due to financial constraints. You tried neba, that was good but u simply just can’t afford him.

  76. Tell them Stay, you should actually demand £300,000 per week ufanane ndi Madolo anzako a ku England!

    Fakeni!

  77. Angopita ku Spai ko kuno ndalama kulibe why paying munthu mmodzi MK1 Million kwacha in a team and 10 enawo Mk40thousand kwacha each ndiye bola mpirawo azimenya ekhatu popanda enawo.

  79. can someone tell this stupid guy that he is in the wrong country at the wrong time??????????

  81. Tamuuzani mnyamata ameneyi achepetse fodya. Kodi adayamba wamva ndani kuti osewera wampira kuno atalandilako ndalama ngati imeneyo? Chamba eti

  83. This guy should hit the road sooner than later and return to his mother land. Can any club in his country afford what he is demanding at club level? Akagwere.

  84. Tell this guy to stop day dreaming. He is building castles in the air. He should ask his coach how much is his coaching salary. He should go to Japan komweko or let him go down Jozi if he feels he wealthy it

  88. Though Im not a nomad,this z total nosense.How can he demand such hudge sums of money 4m Mlw,ngat ali dolo apite ku spain’ko kapena Italy,our economy cannot support him,apite kwa b-backward,kaya mukuti forward president akamupatse.Fotsekiii!!!

  93. Inu a mighty if you can only pay the local players mk250,000.00 per month you can see how they can become hardworking and committed kumuposaso ameneyu. Why always valuing zakunja more than zathu. Where is the ‘best buy malawian.’Or is it another ploy of externalising funds. THINK TWICE OR THRICE!
