We have not agreed on these issues and once that happens, the signing can go ahead,\u201d said Rachier.<\/p>\n<p>But Rachier, a Senior Counsel, said the club has so far met all their obligations with the coach as per what was agreed on.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA contract does not always have to be written. We agreed on some things and, as a club, we have gone out of our way to fulfill them.\u00a0 We don\u2019t owe him anything,\u201d said the Gor official.<\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\u00a0The coach was given an improved Sh500,000 a month contract early in the year. This also includes a Sh200,000 apartment in the leafy suburbs of Nairobi.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Rachier, however, dismissed claims that Logarusic does not have a work permit pointing out that the club always gets one for him whenever he is in the country.<\/p>\n<p>He said the club does not have a problem with Logarusic and is ready to bend over backwards to accommodate him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs the chairman of the club, I want to say that we have no problem with him. If he feels that some people don\u2019t want him there is no way I can tell for sure,\u201d said Rachier.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/news\/logarusics-conditions-for-returning\/\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground:  !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 100% !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Courtesy of the Standard Every time Gor Mahia coach Zradvko Logarusic goes on holiday doubts emerge on whether he will<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2602","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2602","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2602"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2602\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2602"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2602"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2602"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
