Monrovia — Liberia Football Association Gardnerville Subcommittee defending champions Pepper FC has suspended its goalkeeper Marvin Sumo for going against the club's code of conduct.

A statement from the Burning Pepper said Sumo was suspended for time indefinite (on the job without salary ).

"Marvin Sumo shall not play any "commercial" football-related activity (s) for any other team, or organization for whatsoever reason and also for a county (county meet) unless previously approved in writing by PEPPER FOOTBALL CLUB,"

The club said.
