According to information from the press in that country, the problem began in April when new contracts were signed with the Canadian teams for qualification for Qatar and bonuses depending on how far they go in the World Cup.
The federation received 10 million dollars for the World Cup qualification of which the directors want to allocate 10% to the squad when they expect it to be at least 40%.
So far none of the players has spoken about it.
