Terengganu FC II (TFC II) striker Jordan Mintah will not agree to a pay cut as keeping fit indoors is still considered part of the job.
The M-League is now suspended after the government enforced the Movement Control Order (MCO) to curb the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Teams are facing financial woes due to the loss of gate collections and sponsorships.
“I do not agree to a pay cut. This is because the management has given us a training schedule and we need to send our training videos daily to the coach for evaluation.
“This means we are still ‘working’, only that we do it at home and not on the field,” said Mintah, who scored his first goal in the Premier League in the 1-0 win over Selangor II on March 1.
The 25-year-old said he is diligently training at home in Kuala Terengganu.
“I have no problems following the training programme planned by coach Roshadi Wahab.”
Meanwhile, Mintah is worried about his family, especially his mother (Theresa Adjwoa Ampomaa), in Ghana.
He disclosed that his family are Covid-19 free.
“My family are in good health in Ghana. Although they have not contracted Covid-19, I am still worried.
“And to make sure everybody (in Ghana) are safe, I always remind my family members to stay indoors and not to mingle with too many people,” Mintah added.
