Watford payments claimed by two clubs in Senegal

Ismaila Sarr is Watford's record signing

Two Senegalese clubs are to protest against English Premier League team Watford to Fifa, saying they have not received sell-on payments owed after Ismaila Sarr's transfer last summer.

Senegal winger Sarr joined the Hornets from Rennes in August 2019 for a reported club record fee of £30m.

Both Linguere de Saint-Louis and Generation Foot say they have not had the first of five solidarity payments for the 22-year-old's move.

The clubs told BBC Sport Africa they will be sending a letter to the world governing body's transfer matching system department.

Watford chairman Scott Duxbury said they have been "thwarted" by "insufficient banking detail" regarding one of the payments, while the Hornets have had "direct and regular contact with the other party with a view to imminent resolution" in relation to the other payment.
