Updates On Siyethemba Sithebe’s Current Situation With AmaZulu.
Despite the fact that the midfielder has signed a precontract to join Kaizer Chiefs, Siyethemba Sithebe has been allowed to continue training with the AmaZulu senior side.
Sithebe’s middleman, uncle Musa Sithebe, a Durban attorney, has stated that the Newcastle-born youngster is not prevented from training with Benni McCarthy’s senior squad.
McCarthy had previously stated that he hoped to keep Sithebe, 29, in the lineup for the rest of the season, despite the fact that doing so would be difficult because any coach must begin scouting players to replace any talent on his way out to another side.
McCarthy announced last week that he had agreed to his chairperson, Sandile Zungu, and the board’s direction that Sithebe not kick a ball in anger for Usuthu again.
Musa Sithebe acknowledged that the dreadlocked midfielder had been allowed to continue training at AmaZulu, but expressed disappointment that he would not be allowed to play.
“Yes, Siyethemba has confirmed that he is still training with the team,” says the spokesman. “At one point, the coach wanted to put him in the [playing] squad, but he couldn’t because of the concerns,” Musa Sithebe said.
Musa Sithebe was told that, unlike some clubs, AmaZulu had not sent Sithebe to train alone, and that they were being fair in that regard.
