Billionaire plastic surgeon Katsuya Takasu made good on his promise of giving the players cash rewards for clinching a medal in the Olympic men’s football event. Dr Katsuya made this promise when he heard the players boycotted a training session over unpaid allowances, coupled with the fact that the players arrived late due to the government not making proper arrangements for the to fly to Rio.
He made good on his promise yesterday when the players picked the bronze medal. Team coach, Samson Siasia, and Mikel Obi captain got $200,000 and $190,000, respectively. Katsuya Takasu had promised each player of the Nigerian U-23 team $30, 000 if they win the gold in the men’s soccer event and will pay the team $20, 000 dollars for silver and $12,000 for bronze.
