Canada Soccer president Dr. Nick Bontis and general secretary Earl Cochrane have been at the centre of not one, but two player revolts.
Did it not learn any lessons from the exact same issue with the men’s national team last June?
The distrust lies in the belief by players, Canada Soccer is not being upfront when it comes to its finances and want full discloser on the agreement signed with Canada Soccer Business in terms of corporate sponsorship and broadcast rights.Article content Canada Soccer’s hands appear to be tied to the registered private company made up of CPL owners. The 10-year agreement gives CSB the rights for all corporate partnerships and broadcasting rights for the men’s and women’s national team programs.
This is what Bontis and Cochrane, and newly appointed chief operations officer Mathieu Chamberland have to deal with, and they have dropped the ball by not being upfront with their senior national teams. Eventually, Canada Soccer relented to the men’s team when it came to the disagreement over FIFA prize money, having qualified for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. But the very public spat, which had the men’s team boycott a game against Panama in Vancouver, cast a dark cloud over the team in Qatar.
