The midfielder of "Granit" Dzmitry Ihnatsenka said that footballers of Mikashevichy football club don’t receive the wages since February.

– We are not paid! Our contracts started on January 25. We received the money for the five days that remained till the end of the month. And after that… We weren’t paid even half of the February salary even if we sum up all the money that we have received during the time that followed. It has never happened that we received a full salary. Some money are transferred on the card from time to time. Each time differently. Sometimes – it’s once a week, sometimes – once in half a month. And the amounts received are different. Once, I received only a million.

It’s very sad. The situation triggers sad thoughts. We begin to give up. I have to feed my children. And what’s happening now is frightening. I want to believe that there will be some progress for the better. But how long should we wait for it is not known, - the sportsman said to Presball.

– How do you think, what is the reason for it?

– As far as I know, the plant (enterprise Granit in Mikashevichy - the main sponsor of the club. – Presball) is successfully working. Their products are in demand, they export the production. They have money. This means that there are some other reasons why we don’t receive them. Taking this opportunity, I address the director of the plant. We are also people, we have families. We want to eat normal food, buy fruits. And we want to dress good and to look good.

Our team, despite everything, plays football. Moreover, we show good results. Granit saves its place on the leaderboard. And since we give all the best on the field, we fight in the game, we should receive the set amount of money for our work. But such situation not only can’t, but must not last longer.

There’s nothing else in Luninets, apart from football. It would be understandable if there were other fields to spend the budget money on. But.. There is a five-a-side football team in the town, but it is sponsored by private business. Game of five-a-side in Mikashevichy? There's probably no problem with payments.
