Former Chelsea player Gary Johnson said on Thursday he should receive more financial compensation from the club after being sexually abused by their former chief scout Eddie Heath. It recently emerged Chelsea, the current Premier League leaders, paid Johnson 50,000 pounds ($63,850, 59,230 euros) in 2015 not to go public with his allegations against Heath, who died in the 1980s.
Chelsea waived the confidentiality clause in the agreement in order to publicly apologise to Johnson, but he said the money was "not enough for the pain and suffering I've had". He told BBC television: "It took away my childhood - I can never get that back."
