Bradford City insist there is no issue with the £50,000 they owe the Bermudian club that developed Nahki Wells.
Western Stars Sports Club are still waiting for an 83,000 dollar development pay-out as part of the striker’s move to Huddersfield in January.
Valley Parade director of operations David Baldwin confirmed that City have tried to contact Bermuda – but cannot forward the money until they receive a bill.
Baldwin said: “They haven’t sent us an invoice yet. How can we generate the payment when we haven’t got a bill?
“Any international payments have to go through the Football Association’s clearing house first.
“Our accounts department have made contact with the FA and attempted to get in touch with Dandy Town. But until we get sent the invoice from Bermuda, we cannot send any money.”
The Bradford City reply leaves Bermuda once again looking as if we don’t have a clue! The Western Stars Sports Club President should now publicly apologize to Bradford City and figure out what needs to be sent to the Business Club in order to receive the payment.
Wells, who set up four of Huddersfield’s four goals against Barnsley on Saturday, said: “If anyone deserves it, Dandy Town do.
“I spent 20 years at that club, so I have to believe they deserve some sort of credit and financial stability.
“Hopefully it is used well and helps a lot of people back home. It is a large amount of money and, if used wisely, it can help the club massively.”
