The Two-Year Mark of Abdeslam Ouaddou's AS Vita Dispute Is Drawing Near Without a Resolution
With over two years having elapsed since he filed his claim, Orlando Pirates head coach Abdeslam Ouaddou is nearing a major milestone in his continuing financial battle with former club AS Vita.
The Moroccan-born coach is still seeking for a financial resolution to his outstanding concerns, which stem from his tenure with the Congolese team.
The fact that Ouaddou is still trying to get a settlement, even though time has passed, shows how protracted the process can be when there are financial or contractual issues in professional football.
Although the Orlando Pirates coach has embarked on a new chapter in his career as coach of the Soweto giants, the incident involving AS Vita is still fresh in everyone's mind.
Questions on when the disagreement could be fully resolved and if the parties are any closer to reaching an agreement are magnified by the fact that the two-year anniversary is rapidly approaching.
When money responsibilities are disputed or not handled, contractual disputes between African football coaches and players can drag on for a long period. Problems can emerge when professional connections between clubs and their employees break, as Ouaddou's position demonstrates.
The coach is still focused on his duties at Pirates, but he is eager to see the financial issue with AS Vita resolved.
The focus will continue to be on the case's development and if Ouaddou eventually gets the financial resolution he's been seeking as the claim nears its second anniversary.
