A FOOTBALLER is considering legal action after he was sacked for impregnating the daughter of the club’s president.
The African player, who has not been identified, was just six months into a three-year deal at a Slovenian second division side.

The player insisted that the pair were in love and the child was planned.
He has since gone to Nigeria and is in no contact with the woman after the club blocked her from talking to him on social media.
Reported by Ghana web, he said: “I signed a three year deal with the option of another year but last month I ran into trouble when my girlfriend who happens to be the daughter of the president said she was pregnant.
“The club got to know about it and summoned me for a meeting.
“I got there and admitted that I am responsible for the pregnancy and I was told to stay at home and not to be seen around the club premises until I am instructed to return.
We both love each other and decided to have a child
“A week later I was called to the office and told that my agent has been informed about their plans to terminate my contract for gross misconduct and indiscipline.
“The news came to me as a surprise because I have not been found wanting in any area since I arrived at the club six months ago”.
Now he’s planning to build a case and take up the matter with governing body Fifa.
He added: “My agent called me up and said we should file a case with FIFA that he has a recording of the president saying my contract was terminated for having an affair with his daughter.
“She’s an adult for God sake, we both love each other and decided to have a child.
“Now I don’t know what will happen to her and the child since I’m back in Nigeria.
“They have forced her to block me on all social media platforms so we have not been communicating.
“The few friends I made at the club are also scared of speaking to me about her apparently they don’t want to run into trouble with the team. I’m confused right now.”
