Bernard Tekpetey at risk of sanction at Fortuna Dussledorf over contract dispute

Published on: 17 July 2020

Ghanaian striker Bernard Tekpetey faces a risk of sanction by Fortuna Dussledorf after he publicly announced that he no longer wants to play for the club.

The Black Meteors attacker has a year left on his loan deal at the club and has endured a torrid time so far, failing to score in nine appearances this season.

Bernard, having this in mind, announced publicly that he wants to leave the club amid reported interest from Ludogorets Razgrad.

In response to this, Dussledorf coach Uwe Rösler expressed his disappointment on the act of the player.

“I can understand Bernard's disappointment. But when a player is disappointed, he cannot simply say that he doesn't want to come anymore. Especially not through the media," he said

"That's why I spoke to Bernard personally and also to his advisor. We reserve further disciplinary consequences and I assume that he will play with us next season."

"I expect every player who has signed a contract with us to be motivated to train and show their best performance. ”
