They stated this in an open letter signed by the players and coaching staff of the team.
As noted in the letter addressed to the acting head of the Yalta city administration, Andrei Rostenko, who, by the way, is the honorary president of the club, the players have not received salaries for three months, the club lacks infrastructure, but despite this, the athletes continue to fulfill the terms of the contract.
“Having believed the promises of politicians at the highest level and the assurances of the club’s management, we responded to the call to help in the formation of a new football club and came to Yalta from different parts of the Russian Federation: from Moscow and Chelyabinsk, Grozny and Vladikavkaz, Volgograd and Nalchik. However, throughout this entire time, we had a growing feeling that the team was left to the mercy of fate and was not needed by anyone. Due to the lack of access to football fields, we do not have a full-fledged training process, there is a complete lack of medical care, the team is naked and barefoot, and does not have proper nutrition. Moreover, for three months we have not received a penny from the amounts of wages and bonus payments specified in the contracts,” say the signatories of the appeal and ask Rostenko to meet with the team.
