Administrators for Portsmouth have claimed veteran striker Kanu wants £300,000 to quit the stricken Fratton Park club.
Kanu: Wants the full amount
The 35-year-old has not played for Pompey since October last year after sustaining a back injury.
Portsmouth, who were recently relegated from the Championship, are £52million in debt and face the prospect of liquidation.
The Fratton Park outfit are struggling to clear the decks, while Kanu's representative wants his contract honoured by Portsmouth.
Administrator Trevor Birch said: "Kanu's agent wants the full amount and at the moment he is going nowhere.
"There are players at this club who are sat there and they are not coming to me and writing it all off saying they will leave straight away.
"We have to get them off the wage bill and I cannot say any of them are making it easy for me to get them to leave."
