No hot water, no electricity, and delayed wages: Former Feyenoord striker laments situation at Boavista
Former Feyenoord striker Robert Bozeník has been critical of his current employer, Boavista. The Portuguese club are in financial trouble and were relegated to the second tier this season. The ex-Rotterdammer still has a contract with the club, but assumes that he will leave this summer. While it wasn't a season to write home about for Bozeník after he scored five goals in 34 matches, he continues to feature with Slovakia for the friendly matches against Greece and Israel. He defended himself to Slovak media regarding his 'lesser' season. Advertisement 'I understand that people who do not follow football closely or do not know the details have that image. But the circumstances were not exactly nice either. If there is no hot water at the club, no electricity, and your wages are two months behind, then that inevitably has consequences on the pitch. Nevertheless, I have always done my best, and now I am closing this chapter in my life. I hope for more certainty in the future.' With that, the 25-year-old Bozeník, despite his contract until mid-2026, has seemingly announced his intent to leave. GBeNeFN | Max Bradfield

Strugglers Boavista sign nine players in one day
Boavista have adopted a bold strategy in their fight against relegation from the Portuguese top flight - signing nine players in one day. The club are six points adrift at the bottom of the Primeira Liga having won just twice in 21 games this season, with their most recent victory more than three months ago. On Wednesday the Porto-based club announced the signings of nine free agents, a day after Fifa lifted a transfer ban that had prevented the club from making signings in each of the past five transfer windows. Former Sevilla goalkeeper Tomas Vaclik, 35, ex-Paris Saint-Germain defender Layvin Kurzawa, 32, and former Chelsea midfielder Marco van Ginkel, 32, are among the new arrivals. Defenders Osman Kakay, Sidoine Fogning, Vitalii Lystov and Steven Vitoria have also joined the club, as have forwards Moussa Kone and Gboly Ariyibi. Sierra Leone and former Queens Park Rangers defender Kakay was born in London, while American winger Ariyibi is a product of Southampton's academy. Boavista unveiled all nine signings two days after appointing manager Lito Vidigal following the dismissal of Cristiano Bacci. The new signings could make their debuts in Boavista's home league match against Estrela da Amadora on Friday.
