A member of the Black Satellites team that won the 2009 Under-20 World Cup in Egypt, Philip Boampong, has slammed Andre Dede Ayew for allegedly signing an insurance deal without the players' knowledge.

In his narration, Boampong noted that after they won the tournament, team captain Dede Ayew and some officials signed a deal without seeking the opinion of the entire team.

The defender stated that the deal involved an insurance policy that the players were supposed to benefit from for 15 years.

However, because they had not been informed, none of the players benefited, despite having funds deducted from the financial reward package which was given to them.

During an interview with Global Sports Studios, Boampong expressed his displeasure over how Dede Ayew handled the deal without the players' knowledge.

"There was an investment, and he [Dede Ayew] was part of it, but we did not know anything about it. We were called for a general meeting and informed about an insurance policy. It was supposed to cover us for fifteen years in case of injuries, but we didn't know.

"If we had known, we would have sought treatment when we got injured. So, with over 22 players, we were deducted some amount of money, yet we didn't benefit. At least, he should have told us," Boampong said in Twi during the interview.
