The Liberian was involved in pre-season friendlies and spent six months at the club, before leaving frustrated at the end of last year.

Konneh then confirmed to this website in February that he would be undertaking legal proceedings against the club.

According to the player, he had signed a three-year deal effective July 1, 2024, but a series of issues ultimately led to him leaving and has joined LISCR on loan from fellow Liberian club FC Gar'ou.

The FIFA proceedings confirmed to this publication regarding the matter are that the claim has been submitted, and FIFA has acknowledged receipt as of Monday.

In accordance with the regulations, TS Galaxy have been given 21-day notice to submit a response in the contractual dispute case.
