Earlier, Legit.ng reported that Siasia ran into yet another trouble after revealing that he needed to pay about 100,000 Swiss francs before Court of Arbitration for Sports will hear his appeal.
The 52-year-old was banned for life from all football activities by FIFA in August after being accused of match-fixing with a Singaporean Wilson Raj Perumal.
After the news broke, Siasia pleaded not guilty to the crimes, adding that he was not given an opportunity to clear his name from the scandal.
