Leyton Orient's players believe they will not be paid anytime soon until owner Francesco Becchetti leaves.

According to Sky Sports Kaveh Solhekol the players are unsure when this issue will be resolved and fear it may not be until either the Italian sells the club or it is put into administration.

Last Friday, it was revealed the staff and players had not received any forms of payment from Becchetti. 

The PFA (Professional Footballers Association) are aware of the situation and are working hard with the squad to ensure they still represent the supporters and the community. 

Solhekol took to social media and said the following: "The players have been told by the PFA they could be in breach of contract and could be sacked if they go on strike before Saturday's game against Cambridge United. 

"A source at the club said: The whole situation is a disgrace and needs to be looked at. We are locked into a corner with no way out."

Orient are the second oldest club in London and look more and more likely to be playing conference football next season for the first time in 112-years. 

It is another blow in what has already been a tough week for the O's faithful.
