Yanga, however, still believe that Morrison is still legally contracted to them.
Club chairman Mshindo Msolla confirmed to Tanzania’s Daily News over the weekend that Yanga will appeal Morrison’s contract.
“What we want is justice. If CAS will rule that he (Morrison) is our legal player, then Simba (his current club) will be required to follow right procedures to sign him and not what they recently did,” Msolla is quoted as saying.
Msolla added that the Ghanaian player is still included in the club’s list of legal players until they get final judgment of the case from CAS.
Morrison responded to the news about Yanga’s appeal by posting laughing emojis on his Twitter account.
Meanwhile, Yanga will begin their 2020/21 Mainland Premier League campaign by hosting Tanzania Prisons on 6 September at Benjamin Mkapa Stadium.
