Hearts of Oak midfielder, Sulley Muntari, has allegedly been dragged to the High Court by an Italian businessman, Rodrigo Renato Gianno.
The businessman claims Muntari owes him an amount of €97,320 and has refused to pay despite all efforts to request repayment.
Rodrigo Renato Gianno claimed Muntari contacted him to make some payments on behalf of the player and his close associates. The payments were made between 2015 and 2017, and the payment was for various airline tickets and various hotel expenses.
Gianno alleges that Muntari has refused to pay for the money, insisting all cheques issued by Muntari didn't go through at the bank.
He noted that the 37-year-old later acknowledged his debt and promised to pay it back, but has since not honored his pledge.
To this end, the businessman said, he was left with no other option than to take the matter to court for redress.
Gianno also stated that he already sued Muntari at the Court of Milan in 2019, and got judgment in his favor, but the footballer still refused to pay the money.
He, therefore, wants the High Court to compel the footballer to pay the money owed him, including interest and general damages.
