FIFA has ordered NPFL club Katsina United to pay former coach Tony Tope Bulus N28 million over the wrongful termination of his contract.

The club was also ordered to pay FIFA a $5,000 fine for failing to comply with an earlier ruling. Katsina United has 15 days to settle the payments and submit proof of payment to FIFA.

Failure to comply could lead to a ban on registering new players, while continued non-compliance may result in points deduction or relegation to a lower division.

The Court of Arbitration for Sport had earlier ordered Katsina United to pay Bulus N28 million in compensation. Club chairman Surajo Baba Malumfashi said he would comment on the matter after seeing the letter from FIFA.
