Johnson said Grand Slam Track athletes were paid. His own representatives say the money has not arrived.

Michael Johnson told The Telegraph he had "got the athletes paid" after Grand Slam Track's collapse into bankruptcy. Athletes' representatives say no payments have been received. Johnson's own representatives conceded the funds — roughly $11m (£8.1m) held by a third party — have not yet reached athletes, including Josh Kerr and Matthew Hudson-Smith, owed more than £100,000 each.
