Ex-Chelsea player wants more compensation

Former Chelsea player Gary Johnson said on Thursday he should receive more financial compensation from the club after being sexually abused by its former chief scout.

It recently emerged that Chelsea, the current Premier League leader, paid Johnson 50,000 pounds ($63,850) in 2015 to not go public with his allegations against Eddie Heath, who died in the 1980s.

Chelsea waived the confidentiality clause in the agreement in order to publicly apologize to Johnson, but he said the money was "not enough for the pain and suffering I've had".
