Berekum Chelsea forward Sadick Adams has revealed it was bad management that led him to signing for both Atletico Madrid and Etoile du Sahel.

Adams scored four goals in the FIFA U-17 World Cup in Korea almost a decade ago and was one of the most sought after young players on the African continent.

“The pre contract with Etoile was signed right after the U17 African cup in Togo even before Ashgold were in champions league and I even played some league matches till the World Cup in Korea” He is quoted by football made in Ghana

“But like I always say, as a young player I was not guided well and I was even told I am under age so the contract will not be valid until I turn 18…that time I was guided and managed by my club (Ashgold) not an agent until license agent came into the picture after the World Cup”

”I was under age and I couldn’t sign a professional contract so I was allowed to sign any club of my choice with the likes of my father moving in with me anywhere I choose to go but I didn’t know my father was already in Tunisia while I was in Korea for the World Cup so everything was done without my knowledge. I found out all this when the case went to FIFA,”

The Ghanaian went on to play for Atletico Madrid’s youth side till he was banned by FIFA.
