The Hawks threatened to pull out of a World Cup game against Switzerland

Togo national team players say they are still waiting to receive their bonus payments that threatened to derail their World Cup campaign.

The Hawks threatened to pull out of a World Cup game against Switzerland in June but they were persuaded to play after an intervention by Fifa.

Star striker Emmanuel Adebayor, who plays for English side Arsenal, says the bonuses have still not been paid.

"The bonus problem is still there. We were given promises but still nothing has been done," said Adebayor.

"We're still waiting to see the management and it's in their interest to meet with us as soon as possible.

"Whatever happens, we're not going to let this go. If they don't pay up, I don't know what will happen."

Togo play Sierra Leone on Saturday in an African Nations Cup qualifier.

But the players are still waiting to be paid roughly a third of the US$162,000 they were promised for reaching the World Cup finals in Germany.

Togo has a history of bonus disputes between players and football officials.
