Tanjong Pagar terminates U-21 footballer’s contract after punching incident

Aniq Rizqin’s deal with Tanjong Pagar United has been terminated after allegedly punching an Albirex Niigata opposition following a Singapore Premier League Under-21 sport.

The club stated in a post on Instagram and Facebook on Wednesday ( 12 February ) that the decision was made after” careful consideration.” The team had met with the crew manager, coaches and players of the Under-21 team to evaluate the event.

Aniq appeared to blow during the post-game handshakes on Monday in movies that were widely available online. He sprints from the sideline quickly to hit an Albirex person.

A 19-year-old gentleman was detained for common annoyance and is being looked into for deliberately causing harm, according to the police on Tuesday.

Tanjong Pagar stated on Wednesday that it will continue to assist Aniq and the government with the police research.

” Tanjong Pagar United Football Club would like to repent to the team’s fans and adherents, and to the fans of sport for the post-match affair involving our U-21 person”, the team said.

The team, it added, “does not condone murder and unsportsmanlike behavior on and off the field.” &nbsp,

” We have re-emphasized this concept to TPUFC’s entire staff, players, and council people.” &nbsp, We expect our people to maintain and preserve the requirements of a midfielder”.

Additionally, it has a relationship with Albirex Niigata to provide assistance to the person who has been affected.
