3SC talisman, Gbolahan Salami has rejected claims that he is a difficult player to work with.
.
Salami played a significant role when the Daniel Amokachi tutored Super Eagles won the West African Football Union (Wafu) Cup in 2010.
.
"I think it's necessary to put things straight because my image is at stake. Nobody could explain why I was suspended since the club granted me permission to be away.
.
It's on record that I scored one goal in every round of the 2013 Federation Cup, which makes me the team's highest goalscorer. I've also scored five goals in the league this term.
.
"I do my best to fulfill contractual agreement by scoring goals and helping others to score," Salami, who is also a former under-20 forward, said to supersport.com.
.
The former Mamelodi Sundowns forward equally lamented that he has since become a target of match officials who threaten him on the field.
.
"People don't know what I go through during matches. Clubs connive with match officials to upset me so as to ensure I'm sent out during league games. However, I try as much as possible to remain calm and concentrate on the game.
.
"Defenders even come hard on me and the officials fail to penalise them," he told supersport.com.

Salami rejoined 3SC from Enyimba due to pressure from fans of the Ibadan side.
