Iliyan Filipov stated that the transfer situation involving Oko-Flex's move to Levski has been brought before FIFA. According to Filipov, his club, Botev (Plovdiv), is appealing the player's unilateral termination of his contract. He claims that the buyout clause does not grant the player the right to unilaterally terminate the agreement. Filipov also stated that Levski motivated Oko-Flex to terminate his contract to sign with them as a free agent and that Levski bears joint responsibility. Filipov said his club expects FIFA to suspend the player's rights for 4-6 months, issue a transfer ban for Levski, and award significant financial compensation. He specified this compensation is for missed benefits from a transfer to Ludogorets and for Oko-Flex's salaries. Filipov added that Oko-Flex is still a Botev (Plovdiv) player, with the club continuing to pay his salary and insurance, and that his contract has not been terminated.

PFC Botev Plovdiv has submitted an official complaint to the Disciplinary Commission of the BFS regarding PFC Levski Sofia. The complaint accuses Levski Sofia of conducting unauthorized discussions about a transfer for Armstrong Oko-Flex, a 23-year-old Irish and English winger who is under contract with Botev until June 30, 2027. The complaint alleges that on January 12, 2026, Botev's management discovered that representatives from Levski had contacted the player through his father without the club's knowledge or written permission. It is claimed within the complaint that personal terms were agreed upon between the player and PFC Levski Sofia during this contact. As evidence, the complaint cites a WhatsApp correspondence in which the player's father allegedly confirmed that Levski had initiated contact and that personal terms were settled. Botev Plovdiv argues that this action violates regulations that prohibit clubs from negotiating with a player who has more than six months remaining on their contract without permission from their current club. Consequently, Botev has asked the commission to impose a ban on Levski Sofia registering new players during the next transfer window. Oko-Flex joined Botev Plovdiv in August 2025 and has made 6 appearances in the efbet Liga this season, scoring 2 goals and providing 1 assist. He has been capped 7 times for the Ireland U21 team, for which he has scored 4 goals. According to Transfermarkt, he has a current market value of €600k. The Polish club Wisła Płock has also been linked with the player.
