Accusations that Wisdom Fernando has departed the team have been refuted by Akwa United.

According to reports, the winger quit the team in an effort to find employment elsewhere.

However, a statement from Akwa United claims that Fernando is still bound to the team.

The Uyo club claimed the player still has a subsisting contract that will last till the end of the 2023-24 football season.

“The story of his departure that is circulating in the media space can only be described as false and unfounded as the player who was seen at the Uyo township stadium during Akwa United pre-season friendly games with Enyimba International and Bayelsa United this week, missed the two games following his absence from the team’s training programme early in the week without official permission,” reads a statement on the club’s official Facebook page.

“We wish to warn that any Company, State Authority, Licensed Intermediary (Agent) or Football clubs that enters any deal with the player Wisdom Fernando without the authorization and permission from the Management of Akwa United Football Club, is doing so at his or her own risk.”

Our player Fernando is still at Akwa United.
