Ghana U20 striker Francis Narh has left Tunisian side Club Africain as the club has failed to honour their contract obligation, GHANAsoccernet.com can exclusively confirm.

The 19-year-old is now assessing if there is any possible chance he could terminate his standing four-year-contract with the club and rejoin a new club in January.

Narh claims he has received no contract signing on fee, winning bonuses and weekly wages since inking the contract together with Tema Youth compatriot Derek Mensah in August.

"I have returned to Ghana purely because Club Africain have failed honour a single obligation under the contract I signed with them in August. I have not been paid a bonus, wages/salary and have not received any sum as a contract fee. I was surviving in Tunisia," he told GHANAsoccernet.com.

Ghana U20 midfielder Seidu Salifu is the only Ghanaian player still at the Stade Olympique de Radès as officials at the club has reportedly seized his passport which would enable him travel out of the country.

Mensah has already left the Tunisians and is set to sign for a new club when the transfer window reopens next month.

By statistics, the attacker was regular for the club and came off the bench in the 55th minute to score in a 2-0 victory in September in the Tunisian Lig 1.

GHANAsoccernet.com investigations reveal the player  met Tema Youth President Wilfred Osei Kwaku over the issue on Thursday and the President has admonished the youngster to return to the club.

But Narh has openly insisted he will not return to Tunisia after arriving in Accra with former Black Stars striker Prince Tagoe who has also reportedly cancelled his contract with the club.

Tagoe joined Club Africain as a free agent after being released by Turkish side Bursaspor is July but Tagoe is set to quit and press for compensation against the club after they failed to honour their part of the agreement.
